    Default Anyone know anything about urachal cysts?

    My friend's DD had abdominal pain over night, so they did an ultrasound and blood work to look for appendicitis. The appendix is fine, but she has a urachal cyst (sp?) and the radiologist said he thought it needed to come out.

    There is a possibility it is malignant and my friend is now waiting in the peds office freaking out.

    Anyone know anything about these?
