More Details: Currarino syndrome is a rare congenital malformation characterised by the triad of: an anorectal malformation, sacral bony defect and presacral mass. One rare but possible anorectal malformation is an anal canal duplication, a congenital anomaly which is not only the most distal but also the rarest form of digestive tract duplication. We present the case of a four-year-old female who had a complete form of the Currarino triad including an anal canal duplication.
