Patient's question:
Buttocks pain onset time: Occasionally Medical examination results: Congenital sacral fusion defect Previous treatment history and effectiveness: No treatment What kind of assistance is needed: How is it treated? Does it affect survival?Doctor's answer:
Incomplete fusion of the sacrum is a developmental abnormality of the lumbar and sacral bones, or a congenital malformation, resulting from incomplete fusion of the vertebral canal during embryonic development.Medical advice: Second, during the growth and development process, incomplete initial ossification of the bilateral vertebral arches occurs in the second sacral vertebra, with non-fused vertebral plates, but without spinal cord herniation. Medically, this is referred to as a hidden sacral fissure, also known as a hidden spinal dysraphism. The developmental abnormality itself does not cause symptoms, but due to the structural weaknesses present in the autopsy, the non-fused areas are cartilaginous joints, which are less resilient and prone to secondary injuries or wear and tear, thus leading to clinical symptoms.
