Title: | The intermediate type split cord malformation: hypothesis and case report | Authors: | van Aalst, J. BEULS, Emile Vles, H. Cornips, E. van Straaten, H. |
Issue Date: | 2005 | Publisher: | Springer | Source: | Childs nervous system, 21(12). p. 1020-1024 | Abstract: | Methods: A patient is described in which a complete osteofibrotic dorsally implanted septum was found in combination with a split cord malformation in a single dural tube. This case cannot be explained using the widely used theory as proposed by Pang et al. Split cord malformation, part I: A unified theory of embyogenesis for double spinal cord malformations. Neurosurgery 31:451-480] but must be regarded as a combination of type I and II split cord malformation. Results: The authors state that all types of split cord malformation can be reduced to a single derailment during development, with various degrees. Conclusions: The configuration of the malformation is determined by the way the median parts of the mesoderm come to development. Type I and II split cord malformation are not distinct entities. | Document URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/1942/6591 | ISSN: | 0256-7040 | e-ISSN: | 1433-0350 | DOI: | 10.1007/s00381-005-1159-8 | Category: | A1 | Type: | Journal Contribution |
