Abstract:
Gastrointestinal tract duplications are rare congenital malformations that are benign, presenting usually in childhood. Most
common sites include the distal ileum and oesophagus. Rectal presentation is quite uncommon and is usually cystic. This
is a case of a three year old boy who came with rectal prolapse. On further examination and imaging investigations a presacral
cyst was located and a diagnosis of rectal duplication was made. The cyst was completely excised by a posterior
sagittal approach.
