Drainage from the umbilicus may be due to the presence of structures derived from the vitelline duct or urachus, granulomas, ectopic tissue, or poor hygienic practice. This paper discusses the case of a 6-month-old infant with a wet umbilicus caused by ectopic pancreatic tissue, in urachal remains. No similar cases have been found in the literature.
