A 35-yearold type 2 diabetic woman presented with intermittent umbilical discharge which failed to respond to various antibiotics. An ultrasound scan and MRI scan failed to show any obvious abnormality. The umbilicus was excised and histology confirmed endometriosis. Surgical excision provides a definitive diagnosis and curative treatment for isolated endometriosis.\nArticle Type\nCase Report\nPublication Date\n2-27-2013\nFirst Page\n143\nLast Page\n146\nCreative Commons License\nThis work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-No Derivative Works 4.0 International License.\nRecommended Citation\nJafferbhoy, Sadaf; Symeonides, Panas; Shiwani, Melanie; and Muhammad H.\n(2013)\n\"Chronic Umbilical Discharge : An unusual presentation of endometriosis,\"\nSultan Qaboos University Medical Journal: Vol. 13: 143-146.\nDOI: https://doi.org/10.18295/2075-0528.1443","source_license":"CC0","license_restricted":false}
