| Abstract: | 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 findings selected from a retrospective review of 100 patients of spinal dysraphism evaluated at our institution.
