Survival to adulthood in spina bifida has greatly increased with the advent of modern therapies. With this prolonging of life expectancy, patients are exposed to the risk of adult onset malignancies and the complications of subsequent treatment. We present the case of a 66-year-old woman born with a terminal lipomyelomeningocele, presenting with new fecal incontinence and a desire to undivert her ileal conduit. The deterioration was attributed to chemotherapy for breast cancer. We highlight the urologic challenges of breast cancer management in the neurogenic bowel population, as well as the utility of an adult spina bifida clinic. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case report of a spina bifida patient presenting with fecal and urinary complications from breast cancer chemotherapy.

Lumbosacral Transitional Vertebrae

Congenital malformations such as lumbosacral transitional vertebrae and spina bifida occulta constitute unrare anomalies and could affect the symptomatology of low back pain. A transitional vertebra is characterized by elongation of one or both transverse processes, leading to the appearance of a sacralized fifth lumbar vertebra or a lumbarized first sacral vertebra. Furthermore, sacral spina bifida occulta is a developmental anomaly that corresponds to the incomplete closure of the vertebral column. In the present case report, we describe a case of a dried sacrum presenting a partially sacralized fifth lumbar vertebra and total spina bifida, extended from first to fifth sacral vertebra. A pseudoarthrosis is formed on the left side and the specimen could be incorporated in Castellvi’s type IIa. Moreover, the incidence, morphology, clinical and surgical significance of these spinal malformations are discussed.

Sacral Hiatus

AbstractSacrum is a large triangular bone, forming postero-superior wall of the pelvic cavity. During the routine study of bones in the department of Anatomy, an unusual variation in the sacrum was noted. The bone showed high sacral hiatus i.e., at the level of 3rd sacral vertebrae and non-fusion of lamina of 1st sacral vertebrae This type of anomaly is very rare, which prompted us to report the case. The knowledge about this rare variation is important for orthopaedicians and anesthetists since the high sacral hiatus may lead to clinical procedural failures. It is also important for accurate diagnosis of patients with low back pain. Non-fusion of lamina of 1st sacral vertebrae may be associated with spina bifida occulta and may lead to painful condition of back.

The Subject

AbstractA case of macrodctyly of thumb and index fingers in a female aged fourteen years is reported here. This subject was found to have abnormally large thumb and index fingers of her right hand. This case was also associated with suspected spina bifida occulta. Other fingers and toes were normal. This girl was a second child born to a consanguineous couple. The subject did not have any other anomaly. The macrodactyly of index as well as thumb in this case caused difficulty in carrying out day to day activities like writing, lifting heavy objects and also for using the hand to have food. Such cases may have some morphological and associated genetic importance.
