"The Currarino syndrome is a complex condition variably comprised of characteristic congenital anomalies of the sacrum, anorectum and presacral soft tissues. It is also known as the Currarino triad or ASP triad, however, not all three features are always present 6."
"The triad of features gives rise to the acronym ASP triad (anorectal malformation, sacrococcygeal defect, presacral mass) 1. Since the condition was initially defined as a set of radiographic findings, it was considered an association (like VACTERL)."
