Umbilical limpoma

Hi!

I had this removed this week when undergoing a laparoscopy for something else. Is a limpoma the same as a umbilical hernia? That's what I thought I had, but on my notes it says limpoma. I mean I'm fine with it being removed, just don't know what it is/was.

Lipoma. Just a bit of fatty tissue.

Thanks. But why would they remove it?
