==[[Umbilical hernia historical perspective|Historical Perspective]]==
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.


Babies are prone to this malformation because of the process during [[fetal development]] by which the abdominal organs form outside the abdominal cavity, later returning into it through an opening which will become the umbilicus.

'''Umbilical hernias in adults''' are largely acquired, and more frequent in pregnant women. Abnormal decussation of fibers at the [[linea alba]] may contribute.
==[[Umbilical hernia epidemiology and demographics|Epidemiology and Demographics]]==


It is theorized that cutting the umbilical at birth is a cause of umbilical hernia. Allowing the umbilical cord to fall off naturally may eliminate chance of umbilical hernia in infants.
==[[Umbilical hernia risk factors|Risk Factors]]==


Umbilical hernia has been reported as a complication of a [[transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt]].<ref name="pmid17825762">{{cite journal |author=Mallavarapu RK, Grimsley EW |title=Incarcerated umbilical hernia after transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt procedure for refractory ascites |journal=Clin.

==[[Umbilical hernia screening|Screening]]==


An umbilical hernia can be fixed 2 different ways. The surgeon can opt to stitch the walls of the abdominal or he/she can pleace mesh over the opening and stitch it to the abdominal walls. The later is of a stronger hold and is commonly used for larger tears in the abdominal wall. 
==[[Umbilical hernia natural history, complications and prognosis|Natural History, Complications and Prognosis]]==


Pregnant woman are suseptible to hernias. There are times that the uterus may block the bowels from coming through the opening, but these cases are rather rare. 6 weeks after the baby is born, most surgeons will repair the hernia.
