  • Title: Sacral agenesis occurring in siblings: case report.
    Author: Muthukumar N, Gurunathan J, Sampathkumar M, Gajendran R.
    Journal: Neurosurgery; 1992 Jun; 30(6):946-8. PubMed ID: 1614603.
    Abstract:
    We report a rare incidence of sacral agenesis occurring in siblings. One of our patients had a low-lying conus, and untethering of the cord in the area of the filum terminale led to improvement in urinary symptoms. The need for aggressive investigation of patients with sacral agenesis and static neurological deficits is discussed.
