Infected urachal cyst is one of spectrum abnormalities. It usually presents in children because obliteration normally happened at early infancy. Rare case occurs adult either can be small incidence or unrecognized symptoms until adulthood. Only numbers literature reported. The urachus a tube extending from the anterior roof vesica urinaria to umbilicus along midline. vestigial fibromuscular str...

Urachus is a tubular formation originating from the top of urinary bladder and directed to umbilicus between peritoneum transverse fascia abdomen. In an embryo, it serves divert primary urine amniotic fluid. case, if obliteration duct does not occur until birth, various pathological processes can develop in it. The most common abnomalies urachus reported adults are infected urachal cyst carcino...

Primary actinomycosis in urachal remnant is documented rarely in the English literature. The disease is usually misdiagnosed as urachal carcinoma because of its infiltrating and enhancing natures. We illustrate a case of urachal actinomycosis with ultrasound, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance images. The clinical, radiological, and pathological findings are reviewed. Some imaging find...

BACKGROUND The embryological and anatomical features of urachal anomalies have been well defined. Because of the variable clinical presentations, uniform guidelines for evaluation and treatment are lacking. In an attempt to establish an optimal diagnostic and treatment modality, we report our experience with urachal anomalies at a single institution over a 10-year period. METHODS The records ...
