Article Abstract
Anterior rectal duplication cyst is rare entity with <50 reported cases to date. It has myriad presentations like bleeding per rectum, constipation, rectal prolapsed and intestinal obstruction due to extrinsic compression of rectum. However, the association of enlarged duplication cyst compressing the bladder neck or ureter, and leading to bladder outlet obstruction or hydroureteronephrosis is extremely rare with only a handful of reported cases. We report a rare case of large anterior rectal duplication cyst in a young girl leading to acute urinary retention with bladder outlet obstruction which was eventually managed by laparoscopic-assisted transabdominal surgical excision of the cyst. The authors believe that such an association has not been previously reported in this age group.

We present a rare case of a full-term male neonate with a complex perineal anomaly featuring a mucosa-lined cleft extending from the penile base to the right gluteal fold, accompanied by penoscrotal transposition, hemiscrotal hypoplasia, and hypospadias. The lesion's anatomical and histological characteristics suggest antenatal rupture of a rectal duplication cyst. This report highlights the diagnostic challenges of exteriorized rectal duplications and underscores the importance of multistage reconstruction for optimal functional and cosmetic outcomes.

Aim: To discuss the role of imaging in IBS diagnosis.

Background: Peri-and postoperative complications and recurrences are associated with the endoscopic surgical procedures for neuroendocrine tumors of the digestive system. This study aimed to evaluate the long-term outcomes and safety of endoscopic submucosal dissection and mucosal resection for neuroendocrine tumors in the digestive system.
Methods: In a retrospective cohort study, variables of minimally invasive endoscopic treatments and follow-up recurrences of 100 males and females with neuroendocrine tumors of gastric, duodenal, and rectal lesions were collected from records and analyzed.

Introduction: Rectal duplication cysts are rare congenital anomalies, accounting for approximately 4 % of all gastrointestinal duplication cysts. The glomus coccygeum is a vascular structure located around the tip of the coccyx. This case report details an adolescent female with a rectal duplication cyst, where incidental dissection of the glomus coccygeum during surgery resulted in unexpected blood loss.
