摘要
A 41-year-old woman presented to the emergency department with pain in her abdomen during menstruation. On examination, we detected a cystic lump in the midline, just below the umbilicus. Ultrasonography of the whole abdomen was suggestive of uterine fibroids with a probable mesenteric cyst. Computed tomography of the abdomen confirmed an otherwise asymptomatic, silent, urachal cyst connected to the umbilicus and urinary bladder by obliterated bands. The cyst was explored and removed surgically under combined spinal-epidural anesthesia, following a single-staged approach. A total abdominal hysterectomy with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy was subsequently performed. Urachal cysts are rare congenital anomalies. Any unexpected finding on clinical examination should alert clinicians for further evaluation and treatment.
