Abstract
Retrospective analysis of six cases of caudal regression syndrome, classified in accordance with vertebral envolvement. The degree of vertebral agenesis, morphology and topography of the conus medularis, neurologic implications (motor, sensitive and autonomous) and associated malformations, of particular importance in some situations of little significant vertebral agenesis are analyzed. Associations with eventual predisponent factors are sought.
