Palanivelu, Kedar Patil, B. Srikanth, S. Rajapandian, P. Praveenraj] Here, we discuss an unusual case of a pararectal tail gut cyst, initially misdiagnosed to be an ischiorectal abscess which was presented to us after being operated for incision and drainage. It was excised by a laparoscopic assisted approach. In such cases, a digital examination, transrectal ultrasound, CT scan, or MRI can help in the diagnosis. A combined approach is useful to locate and remove the cyst intact; however, a lower approach is useful for low-lying lesions. Histopathology can differentiate between a rectal duplication cyst and a tail gut cyst.
