Umbilical hernias are common in infancy but can also occur in adulthood. In this episode, Dr Kate Chesterman discusses how these hernias are likely to present in childhood. She covers the chances of spontaneous resolution and the indications for referral and surgery. She then compares this with the presentation and management of an umbilical hernia in an adult, again considering underlying causes and indications for treatment.
