Adhesions caused by umbilical piercing.

Gary Ventolini1, Steve Kleeman.   

Abstract

A 31-year-old woman experienced chronic pelvic pain, unresponsive to medical therapy. History, physical examination, and laboratory analyses were noncontributory except for multiple body piercings. Diagnostic laparoscopy revealed an umbilical adhesion from the small bowel to the anterior abdominal wall. The patient removed the umbilical piercing but declined surgery for adhesiolysis.
