We describe a male patient presenting with Currarino triad: a recto-urethral fistula, sacral bony deformity, and a presacral teratoma. Clinical screening of his family revealed three additional cases with incomplete forms of this association. Cytogenetic findings in the patient and his mother were normal. This case suggests that the occurrence of an anorectal malformation together with a sacral bony deformity should raise a physician's index of suspicion for associated presacral tumors, and that screening of the patient's family members with sacral radiographs is necessary.
