초록

Caudal agenesis refers to the congenital malformation with the essential feature of the agenesis of the sacrococcygeal bone. It is associated with various types of spinal cord anomaly as well as with complex anomalies of genitourinary or gastrointestinal system. The wide spectrum of the disease can be attributed to its pathoembryological origin, the secondary neurulation. This review presents the definition, etiology, classification, and clinical features of the disease.
