Umbilical or fistula resection

Umbilical or fistula resection is a surgical treatment used to treat umbilical fistula. Some babies have yellow-green water or fecal matter discharged from the center of the navel after the umbilical cord has fallen off, and even gas is discharged like fart. During inspection, it was found that there was a fistula in the center of the navel and there was a wet reddish mucous membrane around it. "Umbilical fistula" is the residual tube of the yolk duct that is not completely closed (normally, the fetal yolk duct gradually degrades and occludes from the 6th week).
