Abstract
Rectal duplication cysts are a rare clinical entity accounting for 4% of all intestinal duplications. The presenting symptoms depend upon their size, location and age of the patient. We report a rare neonatal presentation of rectal duplication cyst which was present as a swelling in the infracoccygeal region in a female child since birth. MRI suggested a cystic swelling adjacent to the rectum. Excision was done by posterior sagittal approach at 1 month of age. Histopathology confirmed it to be a rectal duplication cyst.
