Overview

Umbilical hernia must be differentiated from epigastric hernia, Spigelian hernia, incisional hernia, and omphalocele.

Differentiating umbilical hernia from other Diseases

Umbilical hernia must be differentiated from epigastric hernia, Spigelian hernia, incisional hernia, and omphalocele.

Spigelian hernia		↓
Incisional hernia
Omphalocele

Importantly this type of hernia must be distinguished from a para-umbilical hernia which occurs in adults and involves a defect in the midline near to but not through the umbilicus. It is also important to differentiate an umbilical hernia from omphalocele.
