Abstract

INTRODUCTION: Sacral agenesis is a rare congenital condition that is characterized by sacrococcygeal bone agenesis. It is associated with spinal cord anomalies as well as problems with the genitourinary system, large bowel, and lower extremities. Fetal ultrasound allows for diagnosis even before birth. CASE PRESENTATION: The authors present the case of a 1-year-old girl with sacral agenesis type III and bilateral congenital talipes equinovarus with spina bifida who was born to a nondiabetic mother and had a normal anomaly scan. CLINICAL DISCUSSION: People with less severe forms of sacral agenesis can live a normal life, and it is not connected with cognitive impairment; however, concomitant bladder, colon, and lower limb disorders cause considerable morbidity. The majority of treatment is supportive, frequently requiring orthopedic, urological, gastroenterological, pediatric, and physiotherapy support. CONCLUSION: Genetic and prepregnancy counseling, as well as early screening of high-risk mothers, remain the only options for prevention of the disease since treatment is mostly supportive.
