# Umbilical Hernia Probe-Induced Cocco Sign: Color Doppler During Pressure and Release in Standing Position

## TL;DR

A new ultrasound technique called the probe-induced Cocco sign was used to detect an umbilical hernia in a standing patient.

## Contribution

The paper introduces a novel ultrasound method for diagnosing umbilical hernias using pressure and release in a standing position.

## Key findings

- Applying pressure and releasing it with the ultrasound probe revealed the Cocco sign.
- The technique was performed with the patient in a standing position, which is uncommon for such ultrasounds.

## Abstract

We describe a case of an ultrasound-detected umbilical hernia in a 56-year-old female patient who underwent a skin ultrasound. With the patient in a standing position, the probe was positioned at the level of the umbilicus. Pressure was applied with the probe and then it was released; probe-induced Cocco sign was revealed.
