摘要

Background

Sacral agenesis is a rare neural tube defect characterized by abnormal development of the caudal aspect of the vertebral column and the spinal cord. Even though the etiology is unknown. Its pathophysiology has been linked to maternal diabetes, genetic factors, and several teratogens.

Case report

This case report presents the case of a young female patient (2 years old) of sacral agenesis type II with no neurogenic dysfunctions. MRI results were specifically used to make the diagnosis. There were no anatomical or functional impairments found in this patient, making the presentation of this case unique.

Conclusions

The case is being reported for its rarity and educational value because the prognosis is good in isolated sacral agenesis. Early detection and prompt treatment are crucial to decreasing the risk of complications and improving the prognosis.
