RESUMO
Hernia of the umbilical cord associated with segmental dilatation of the ileum (SDI) is a rare entity with only 17 cases reported in literature. We hypothesize that the prominent mesenteric vessels or folds that splay out towards the ends of the SDI signify the presence of an antecedent duplication cyst which eventually got resorbed to form the dilated segment.
