Popis: ABSTRACT: Currarino triad is a rare syndrome, with less than 250 cases reported, and it includes a combination of sacrococcigeal bony abnormalities, anorectal malformations and the presence of a presacral mass. Here we present a case of a 48-year-old male patient with history of severe chronic constipation, who was incidentally diagnosed with a presacral during imagiological investigation, which was histologically proven to be a neurendocrine tumor.
