Özet

Rectal duplication cyst is a very rare congenital anomaly. It is usually observed early in the life. A 21-year-old male had anterior rectal duplication cyst lined by respiratory epithelium, which is extremely rare type of the lining epithelial. We present typically radiologic images (TRUS, CT and MRI) of anterior rectal duplication cyst. The competence of TRUS in the diagnosis of this uncommon condition and differential diagnosis are discussed. © 2002 Elsevier Science Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved.
