Urachus*

Pateat urachus is a uncommon disease and it has a good prognosis if there is no combired major anomaly and evidence of malignancy. This paper presents one case of patent urachus which was found and removed surgically during the neonatal period. A brief review of related literatures is also presented.

The patent urachus results from failure of luminal closure of the urachus. Embryologically, the urachus represents the vestigial remnant of the allantois which, in the fetus, communicates with the cloaca. The authors report a case of congenital patent urachus with review of some literatures.

Complete patent urachus is a congenital anomaly that remains Open by fistulous tract extending from the bladder to umbilicus even after birth and rarely observed in literatures. We have experienced a case of complete patent urachus and reported with review of some literatures.

The complex group of changes which occurs during the intrauterine maturation of the urinary tract gives rise to several anomalies including those of the urachus. The occurrence of patent urachus is very rare and 67 cases has been reported by world literature since 1550, first description of patent urachus by Bartholomaeus Gabriolus A brief discussion of embryology, diagnosis and treatment is included for completeness. And a case of congenital patent urachus was seen at Han Ill Hospital.

Urachal mucinous tumor of uncertain malignant potential is very rare and is characterized by a multilocular cyst showing the proliferation of atypical mucin-secreting cells without stromal invasion. As in ovarian and appendiceal borderline tumors, it represents a transitional stage of mucinous carcinogenesis in the urachus. In addition, this tumor may recur locally and develop into pseudomyxoma peritonei. Due to its scarcity and diagnostic challenges, we report a mucinous tumor of uncertain malignant potential arising in the urachus.

Urachal anomalies are very rare. The umbilicus and the structures which lead to its formation rarely cause trouble except in patients with an error. Embryologically, the urachus represents the vestigial remnant of the allantois which, in the fetus, communicates with the cloaca. The patent urachus results from failure of luminal closure of the urachus Herein a case of congenital patent urachus reported with a brief review of literatures.

Primary actinomycosis of the urachal remnants is rare disease, and was not reported in Korean literature. Wereport the fistulography and CT findings of a cases of actinomycosis in the urachal sinus in a 31 year-old man.
