MRI of closed spinal dysraphisms
Pediatric Radiology, 2011 We present a pictorial review of MRI features of various closed spinal dysraphisms based on previously described clinicoradiological classification of spinal dysraphisms proposed. The defining imaging features of each dysraphism type are highlighted and a diagnostic algorithm for closed spinal dysraphisms is suggested.

Ischemic myelomalacia and closed spinal dysraphism in multiple finishing swine
Veterinary Pathology, 2022 Ischemic myelomalacia secondary to fibrocartilaginous emboli (FCE) is an idiopathic disease in humans and animals. On the other hand, congenital spinal cord malformations result from neural tube defects in fetal development (ie, spinal dysraphism), with structural anomalies referred to collectively as myelodysplasia.

Pacinioma of Lumbosacral Skin in Closed Spinal Dysraphism
Journal of Cutaneous PathologyABSTRACTClosed spinal dysraphism (CSD) is a congenital condition caused by a failure in secondary neurulation during embryogenesis. CSD is associated with characteristic cutaneous stigmata often identified clinically. Rarely, such stigmata have been reported to occur with complex congenital intraspinal lipomas containing Pacinian corpuscle hyperplasia.

Magnetic Resonance Imaging in the Pre-Operative Assessment of Closed Spinal Dysraphism in Children
Pediatric Neurosurgery, 1990 Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was used in the pre-operative assessment of closed spinal dysraphism in 61 paediatric patients. There were 25 cases of tethered cord, 6 of retethering at the site of myelomeningocele repair, 15 cases of diastematomyelia, 12 cases of lipomyelomeningocele, and 1 case each of dermal sinus, dermoid cyst and neurenteric cyst.

Closed spinal dysraphism: A review on diagnosis and treatment in infancy
European Journal of Paediatric Neurology, 1998 This article reviews the clinical presentation, pathophysiology, diagnostic strategies, and therapeutic management of closed spinal dysraphism in infancy. Four groups of symptoms are distinguished: (1) cutaneous abnormalities, (2) lower motor neuron dysfunction due to congenital spinal and nerve root abnormalities, (3) upper motor neuron dysfunction ...

Child's Nervous System, 2022 The presence and progression of symptoms is the basis for deciding to perform surgery in infants with closed spinal dysraphism (CSD); however, identifying symptoms could be limited, making it difficult to decide. This study investigated whether an electrodiagnostic study (EDS) can provide evidence of neural damage in asymptomatic infants with CSD.The ...

American Journal of Roentgenology, 1989 We reviewed 104 consecutive cases of closed dysraphism in patients seen at one institution between December 1984 and June 1987. All patients had myelographic studies, and 43 had associated CT examinations. Clinical and surgical findings (64 patients) were correlated with myelographic information.

Annales de pediatrie, 1993 This retrospective review included 133 patients with one or several of the following defects: diastematomyelia, neurenteric cyst, dermal sinus or cyst, meningeal malformation, sacral agenesis, tethering of the spinal cord, and lumbosacral lipoma. Physical evaluation readily identified most lumbosacral lipomas, as well as most cases of diastematomyelia ...
