Synopsis

Umbilical granuloma : Hemorrhagic papule, Smooth nodule, Umbilicus
Umbilical granulomas are bright red papules at the base of the cord that represent failure of the cord to re-epithelialize. They should be distinguished from umbilical polyps. The etiology is unknown but may be related to a low-grade infection of the cord stump or retained ectopic mucosa sequestrated at the umbilicus.

Codes

ICD10CM:
P02.69 – Newborn (suspected to be) affected by other conditions of umbilical cord
