Abstract
We present an extremely rare association of anal canal duplication with sacrococcygeal teratoma Altman's Type IV. A 3-year-old female child presented with anal discharge, itching, and vague perineal pain. On examination, a small second opening of 5 mm in size and 2.5 cm in length was located just posterior to the normal anus at 6 'o'clock position. The lumen ended blindly without connection to the normal anorectum. Ultrasound and radiological investigations were normal. During excision of the duplicated tract, it was seen arising from a presacral mass which was completely excised along with coccygectomy. Biopsy was confirmed mature teratoma and anal canal duplication.
