Computed Tomography in Spinal Dysraphism

Journal of Computer Assisted Tomography, 1977
The value of spinal computed tomography in the diagnosis and management of spinal dysraphism is described. Eight patients with diverse etiological agents were evaluated by clinical examination and subsequent computed tomography, without contrast enhancement.

Leg Lengthening in Spinal Dysraphism

Journal of Pediatric Orthopaedics, 1999
Spinal dysraphism may lead to limb inequality and foot deformities. Fears have been expressed regarding limb lengthening in such patients because of potential sequelae in relation to their peripheral neurologic abnormalities. We performed Ilizarov lengthening of the lower limb on seven community walkers with spinal dysraphism.

Pseudotail Associated with Spinal Dysraphism

Dermatologica, 2009
A 5-year-old girl had a caudal appendage and her left buttock was larger than the right buttock. X-ray examination revealed spina bifida and bony defect of sacrum; computed tomography demonstrated the extension of the tumor from subcutaneous tissue to the spinal canal. Histologically, the pseudotail contained lobulated fatty tissue which was consistent

MR spectrum in spinal dysraphism

European Radiology, 2001
Spinal dysraphism is a general term which encompasses a wide variety of anomalies of the spine, all of which result from imperfect midline fusion of the embryonic neural tube. This term refers to large defects that involve the spine and not to small vertical clefts commonly seen within the spinal process of L5 or S1. We present a spectrum of MR imaging

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.

The Surgery of Occult Spinal Dysraphism

1994
The spinal dysraphism state includes all lesions which are the consequence of incomplete formation of the midline structures of the dorsum. It is therefore related to all forms of spina bifida (spina bifida aperta or cystica) as well as occult spinal dysraphism.

Spinal dysraphism.

American family physician, 1988
Spinal dysraphism is common in North America, affecting from one in 500 to one in 1,000 newborns. Although dysraphic conditions vary widely, most can be recognized before any significant neurologic harm occurs. Lesions include simple meningocele, myelomeningocele and tethered spinal cord.
