title: Suprapubic dermoid sinus.
abstract: Two newborns with suprapubic sinuses ending in relationship to the urachus at the umbilicus are reported. Other recent reports indicate that these sinuses are not so uncommon and are due to abnormalities of urachal development in conjunction with a suprapubic dermoid sinus.
