Abstract
Anterior sacral meningocele is a rare congenital anomaly. This rare anomaly is described in a young woman who presented with recurrent abortion and later with a huge palpable mass of pelvic origin, measuring 14 × 12 cm. The various radiologic features, associations such as presacral dermoid as a part of incomplete Currarino syndrome, and the management options available are also discussed.
