PREDICTIVE VALUE OF SPINAL BONE ANOMALIES FOR SPINAL CORD ABNORMALITIES IN PATIENTS WITH ANORECTAL MALFORMATIONS

Retrospective study of ARM patients (1999-2019) examining correlation between sacral/vertebral bone anomalies and spinal cord abnormalities on MRI. Findings help identify which ARM patients require spinal MRI screening based on radiographic bone findings, potentially guiding clinical management and surgical planning.
