The total tubular triplication of the colon is a unique case reported in our environment; only 9 cases were reported up to 2009 in world literature. It's a rare variation of hindgut duplication, the pathogenesis is probably a similar theory of colonic duplication. A case report of 38 weeks of gestation male patient with anorectal malformation and without evident fistula; the patient had undergone surgery for sigmoidostomy. The unexpected finding of triplication sigmoid led to the complete evaluation of the colon. Consequently, it was found three joined segments in the whole length with any possibility to separate one from another. The postoperative period was without complications however, the patient died because of a Multi-Resistant Sthaphylococcus Pneumonia The present case is reported due to the rarity of its conformation and the absence of reports in the national literature and more little patholgyes with similar characteristics of presentation.
