A 1-day-old girl born at 37 weeks 3 days was transferred to our neonatal intensive care unit without anal opening. On surgical procedure, there were only ascending colon with patent urachus and partial small bowel volvulus. The patient was also noted to have an omphalocele, double vagina, and uterus didelphys. She was managed conservatively with double barrel ileostomy after repair of patent urachus and omphalocele by exploratory laparotomy. We report an exceedingly rare case of anorectal malformation with colonic atresia with only a few cases reported in the literature.
