Clinical trials: Tethered Cord
Tethered Spinal Cord, Including Thickened Filum, Lipomas, Myelomeningocele and Meningocele
Inflammatory Response in Children Suffering From Tethered Cord
Embryologic phenomenons that lead to dysraphisms are known, but pathophysiology remains questioned. It is supposed not to be a simple mechanistic dysfunction, and other biological phenomenons are implied in spinal cord damaging.
