| Summary: | Currarino syndrome is a hereditary disease characterized by the triad of sacral agenesis, anorectal malformation, and presacral mass. Most patients are diagnosed in childhood, and this condition rarely manifests in adulthood.

We present a rare case of a 29-year-old woman with a suspected pelvic mass who was diagnosed with Currarino syndrome. |
