Management of umbilical polyp

quote from "Pediatric Surgery (Springer Surgery Atlas)" by Prem Puri, Michael E. Höllwarth -

"For the surgical management of umbilical polyp, limited exploration of the peritoneal cavity is advisable, because of the possibility of an underlying connection to the ileum by a remnant of the omphalomesenteric duct. The approach is via a circumferential incision around the polyp, trying to preserve as much of the normal umbilicus as possible. The skin defect is repaired using an absorbable purse-string suture. A subumbilical incision is made as described above. The abdominal wall is opened transversely and the peritoneal cavity is entered. If an omphalomesenteric duct remnant is present, it is resected."
