Congenital sacral anomalies.

J K Stanley, R Owen, S Koff

    The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery. British Volume

    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    This review classifies sacral anomalies in 71 children into agenetic, dysgenetic, and dysraphic groups. The dysgenetic group shows high rates of visceral and skeletal issues, requiring urological monitoring for agenetic and dysraphic patients.

    Area of Science:

    • Pediatric Surgery
    • Developmental Biology
    • Urology

    Background:

    • Sacral anomalies are congenital malformations affecting the sacrum.
    • These anomalies can be associated with significant comorbidities.
    • A clear classification and understanding of clinical presentations are needed.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To present a review of pediatric sacral anomalies.
    • To propose a classification system for sacral anomalies.
    • To discuss the clinical presentation and associated abnormalities.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective review of seventy-one children with sacral anomalies.
    • Analysis of aetiology and clinical presentations.
    • Classification into agenetic, dysgenetic, and dysraphic groups.

    Main Results:

    • A classification system with three groups (agenetic, dysgenetic, dysraphic) is suggested.
    • The dysgenetic group exhibits a high incidence of congenital visceral and skeletal abnormalities.
    • Agenetic and dysraphic groups require particular attention for urological assessment.

    Conclusions:

    • Sacral anomalies can be categorized into agenetic, dysgenetic, and dysraphic types.
    • Congenital visceral and skeletal abnormalities are common in the dysgenetic group.
    • Continuous urological assessment is crucial for agenetic and dysraphic children with sacral anomalies.
