Spinal Epidural Abscess in Preverbal Children: A Case Report With Currarino Triad

Abstract

Spinal epidural abscess is rare in preverbal children and leads to permanent neurologic deficits if not treated promptly. Currarino triad (anorectal malformation, sacral bony abnormality and presacral mass) is also rare in children. We report the association of extensive spinal epidural abscess and Currarino triad in a young child.
