Umbilical cord cysts warrant evaluation for structural defects and chromosomal anomalies such as trisomy 18, depending on the type of cyst. The appearance of an enlarged or "gigantic" cord has particular association with a patent urachus, often requiring operative exploration to repair the associated urachal remnant. We describe the unusual case of an umbilical cord cyst-measuring 9 cm in maximal diameter and comprising histopathological features of an urachalcyst-presenting in a healthy ex-36 week newborn with no associated anomalies.
根据囊肿类型，脐带囊肿需要评估是否存在结构缺陷和染色体异常，如18三体综合征。脐带增粗或“巨大”外观与脐尿管未闭特别相关，通常需要手术探查以修复相关的脐尿管残余物。我们描述了一例不寻常的病例，一名健康的36周龄新生儿出生时脐带囊肿最大直径达9厘米，具有脐尿管囊肿的组织病理学特征，且无相关异常。
