Possible Explanations
News agencies have speculated that Kurkova's belly button was likely removed as an infant, possibly the result of a surgery needed to correct abdominal problems. Some possible conditions which would require a surgery are an umbilical hernia or gastroschisis, which is a defect when the stomach and intestines poke through a hole in the fetal abdominal wall.
