It was only by happen stance that it was found (c/o period problems led to ultrasound which found the growth). I have had 2 CT scans with contrast and the third was just performed. It was found to have increased in size.....Waiting to see surgical urologist for further treatment. I am a 45 y.o. adult who was diagnosed 5 yrs ago with a urachal cyst.

Her surgery is next week. Can anyone please tell me what to expect? Is she going to be in a lot pain? Any complications after the surgery? Thanks for sharing your comments.

Called the pediatrician's office 4 times over the next two weeks, with the people on the phone saying it was "normal". Finally called and said "this is NOT normal" and they let me take her in. The doctor there said that he wanted us to take to her the hospital immediately for an ultrasound, and that night we were consulting with a surgeon- she had a urachal remnant still connected to the bladder, and it needed surgery. She had the surgery a few days later, and after a subsequent infection, she also has a beautiful man-made belly button :) Thank you for sharing your story, it's great to hear from those who have similar situations.

He will have a operation to remove it this coming Monday. Did your daughter very cranky at that time? His bellybutton were found infected a week ago and has been treated. He was so cranky a week after deliver. We thought it is his personality, until last week when something comes out from his bellybutton. Now it is not infected but he is still so fuzzy and can't lay him down on the bed. Is the urachal cyst cause the pain? how long does it take for your daughter to recover?? Is it really painful procedure? My 1 month baby has the same thing and we just found out a week ago. He will have a operation to remove it this coming Monday.

That's amazing. So glad you had such a wonderful doctor. And I love the bit of humor - she's not a clone. Wow! That’s amazing. So glad you had such a wonderful doctor.

My four year old and seven year old get a real kick from showing all of their fiends when we go to the pool. I love to tell their friends I am an alien and that I was hatched.
