a condition present at birth in which a part of the baby's intestines bulge through a weak area of the abdominal wall, creating a swelling around the navel
A protrusion of part of the intestine through a defect in the abdominal wall around the belly button, usually manifested as a small bulge. Usually not serious and requiring no medical treatment.
A usually self-correcting hernia of the intestines in which protrusion occurs through the abdominal wall in the region of the navel.
A hernia of fat and sometimes the intestines in the region of the naval.
A bulge around an infant's belly button when he or she cries; it usually isn't serious and does not require medical treatment
a hernia is the protrusion of an organ, or any tissue, through an abdominal opening. An umbilical hernia is a small protruding sac hanging from the abdominal wall at the location of the naval. Umbilical hernias may be hereditary in nature.

Outpouching of skin over belly button; may contain abdominal viscera, and regress spontaneously.
A weakening of the abdominal wall leading to a bulging and a protrusion of the abdominal contents outward at the site of the umbilicus. The hernia remains well covered with skin, causes no discomfort, docs not become incarcerated or strangulated, and usually closes off spontaneously by 2 years of age.
Protrusion of a portion of the guts through a weak area of the belly around the umbilicus.
Umbilical hernia is a congenital malformation, especially common in infants of African descent, and more frequent in boys. A hernia is present at the site of the umbilicus (commonly called a navel, or belly button) in the newborn; although sometimes quite large, these hernias tend to resolve without any treatment by around the age of 5 years. Obstruction and strangulation of the hernia is rare because the underlying defect in the abdominal wall is larger than in an inguinal hernia of the newborn.
