Imaging spectrum of spinal dysraphism: A diagnostic challenge [PDF]
South African Journal of Radiology, 2023 Spinal dysraphism (SD) is a collective term for congenital malformations of the spine and spinal cord. It includes a wide range of congenital anomalies resulting from aberrations in the stages of gastrulation, primary neurulation and secondary ...

Risk of occult spinal dysraphism based on lumbosacral cutaneous manifestations [PDF]
SAGE Open Medicine, 2021 Objectives: Occult spinal dysraphism is a congenital failure of fusion of the posterior vertebral arches with intact skin overlying the defect. Lumbosacral cutaneous manifestations are associated with a variable risk of occult spinal dysraphism. Tethered

Neurogenic Lower Urinary Tract Dysfunction in Spinal Dysraphism: Morphological and Molecular Evidence in Children. [PDF]
Int J Mol Sci, 2023 Spinal dysraphism, most commonly myelomeningocele, is the typical cause of a neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction (NLUTD) in childhood. The structural changes in the bladder wall in spinal dysraphism already occur in the fetal period and affect all
