Summary: | Introduction: Duplicated colon is either cystic or tubular; it is a rather unusual clinical entity that remains asymptomatic and undiagnosed in most cases. For Diagnosed cases, excision of the duplicated part is indispensable, due to reported risk of malignancy. Case presentation: We report two cases of colonic duplication in female children with a double anus (vestibular anus and normal site anus); one of them had total double-barreled large intestinal duplication with a double appendix without any communication of both lumens, which is a rare finding. The other case had Y-shaped Rectosigmiod duplication. No genitourinary and other organ duplication detected. Conclusion: When the female infant presented with the double anus, predictably colonic duplication should be considered. The precise and relevant technique should be tailored during management.
