    This episode was written by Dr. Tammy Yau and Dr. Lidia Park, with content support from Dr. Laura Kair. Drs. Tammy and Lidia take full responsibility for any errors or misinformation.

    Key points:

    • Spinal dysraphism is the incomplete fusion of the spine during development.
    • Not all spinal dysphraphisms will have abnormal cutaneous manifestations that you can see on exam
    • Diagnose spinal dysphraphisms with spinal ultrasound in young children and MRI in older children
    • Sacral dimples can be normal but should be worked up if they are larger than 5 mm at the base, above 2.5cm from the anus, not midline, or if there are multiple dimples
