Umbilical
hernia in the infant is common and resolves in majority of the cases by 6 years
of age. Observation till this age and surgery in the event of persistence are
the widely followed management strategies. Trusses, taping and adhesive
strapping have been tried to achieve speedy resolution with variable success
and a significant incidence of skin complications. We present a novel, simple,
easily reproducible, and highly cost-effective technique to achieve complete
resolution of infantile umbilical hernia in a span of 8 weeks, with no skin
complications.
