This case may suggest that the relative benignity of the allantoid cysts may recommend a close ultrasound follow-up in order to identify the onset of any complications, as a late third trimester onset of omphalocele. Prenatal diagnosis of such complications may allow multidisciplinary management of the pregnancy with planned cesarean section, prenatal pediatric surgery consultation, and neonatal surgery.
