Congenital abdominal muscle development defects: typical performance is that the abdomen is huge, soft, and can be deformed with body position changes. The abdominal wall is weak and slack, and the abdomen bulges. Easy access to the internal organs of the abdomen, and even visible visceral contours. Due to the role of the sacral spine muscle, there is often a reflex of the horn, the rib angle is far wider than the normal baby, and the rib protrudes forward. The abdominal skin folds of the light children are mostly transverse, the upper part of the rectus abdominis and the abdominal oblique muscles are present, and the rectus abdominis under the umbilicus is incompletely developed, so the position of the umbilicus is higher. Because the skin of the abdomen is very wrinkled, it looks like "dry plum", so it is also called dry plum belly.
