%X An isolated gluteal mass as a sole signature of underlying anal carcinoma has never been addressed in any surgical literature till to date. In our case report, we have shared our clinical experience of coming across through such a scenario where a 45-year-old lady initially presenting with an isolated apparently innocuous right gluteal mass later proved to be having an anal carcinoma is being discussed in brief. This entails a very cautious approach to any gluteal mass by a treating surgeon as an anal carcinoma may hide itself in this apparently benign rarely malignant surgical entity.
