Infant Has Fluid Filled Cyst Growth On The Back, Clinical Examination Showed Peritoneal Fluid Collection. Will It Disappear By Itself?
my 2 month baby has a congenital defect. She is having a fluid filled cyst like growth on her back (to the right hand side). On clinical examination doctors said it is a peritoneal fluid collection and it is below the skin but above the muscular layer. I want to know whether it will disappear by itself or want any treatment
