Abstract

We generated a transgenic male cloned pig which was derived from fibroblast of white Yucatan miniature pig. After 2 weeks of birth, umbilical hernia which was not easily reduced was identified. Considering the usefulness of cloned pig, surgical treatment for umbilical hernia correction was performed and a cloned pig has been maintained healthy. This is the first report and can be useful for the treatments of umbilical hernia of cloned piglets.
