A female patient presents with a perineal finding, which we suspected was a posterior anal duplication ( Fig. 1A, B ). When probed ( Fig. 1B ), it appeared to be communicating with anal canal distal to the dentate line and just proximal to the anal verge. Plain film anteroposterior pelvic X-ray shows a sacral abnormality ( Fig. 1C ). A magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the pelvis demonstrated a presacral mass consistent with an anterior meningocele and a conus at L2 but without spinal cord tethering ( Fig. 1D ).
