Infection of the umbilicus and its parts with subsequent inflammatory disease commonly occurs in young of farm animals. It is of great importance especially in newborn calves. The objective was to give information on the present diagnostic methods for detection of diseases of the umbilicus, its parts and adjacent organs. Above all, we would like to show the possibilities of differential diagnosis of umbilical inflammation enclaves on the basis of clinical examination as well as the importance of the key implication on the principle of the point system for making the right diagnosis. Our results indicate a practical usability of the prognostic scheme as an auxiliary tool to avoid non-economical treatment of umbilical inflammations in calves. We recommend our verified method for use in practice
