We report a case of giant omphalocele unrecognized at birth followed by a review of the literature. Observation: This was a 4-year-old girl admitted to the department for umbilical swelling that had been present since birth. Clinical and paraclinical examinations made it possible to objectivize a post-omphalocele hernia with hepatic content plus ectopic accession of the left ureter, the surgical procedure consisted of reintroducing the liver associated with a cure of the hernia + ureterovesical reimplantation. Conclusion: Omphalocele is a congenital malformation, antenatal diagnosis is possible during morphological ultrasound from the 12th week. %K Omphalocele %K Ectopic Left Ureter %U http://www.scirp.org/journal/PaperInformation.aspx?PaperID=135567
