Split Cord Malformation: Our Experience
Background: Split cord malformation (SCM) is a rare form of neural tube defects. It belongs to closed type of neural tube defects. SCM constitutes around one-third of cases of spinal dysraphism.

Spinal Dysraphism Presenting as Neuropathic Ulcers: A Case Report of a Delayed Diagnosis
Spinal dysraphism (SD) refers to the abnormal fusion of dorsal midline structures during embryogenesis. It encompasses a variety of congenital spinal defects, ranging from an overt defect in which neural tissue is exposed with no overlying skin (open SD)

Dynamic Lumbosacral Magnetic Resonance Imaging in a Dog with Tethered Cord Syndrome with a Tight Filum Terminale [PDF]
A 1-year and 11-month- old English Cocker Spaniel was evaluated for clinical signs of progressive right pelvic limb lameness and urinary incontinence. Neurological examination was suggestive of a lesion localized to the L4–S3 spinal cord segments.

Magnetic resonance imaging in the prenatal diagnosis of neural tube defects [PDF]
OBJECTIVE: To assess the role of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the prenatal diagnosis of neural tube defects (NTDs). BACKGROUND: NTDs comprise a heterogeneous group of congenital anomalies that derive from the failure of the neural tube to close ...

Neurourological complications in patients with myelodisplasia [PDF]
Spina bifida is a frequently seen congenital anomaly which is compatible with life. During the embryological period the defects in the closure of neural tube leads to open or closed spinal dysraphism.

Genetics of human neural tube defects [PDF]
Neural tube defects (NTDs) are common, severe congenital malformations whose causation involves multiple genes and environmental factors. Although more than 200 genes are known to cause NTDs in mice, there has been rather limited progress in delineating ...

Recognizable neonatal clinical features of aplasia cutis congenita [PDF]
Background: Aplasia cutis congenita (ACC), classified in nine groups, is likely to be underreported, since milder isolated lesions in wellbeing newborns could often be undetected, and solitary lesions in the context of polymalformative syndromes could ...

Neural tube defects: recent advances, unsolved questions, and controversies [PDF]
Neural tube defects are severe congenital malformations affecting around one in every 1000 pregnancies. An innovation in clinical management has come from the finding that closure of open spina bifida lesions in utero can diminish neurological ...
