Bowel function of the spina bifida was studied by clinical assessment and anorectal manometric studies. Anorectal pressure profiles were well correlated with clinical assessment but not with recto-anal inhibitory reflexes. Early training of the defecation is emphasized to obtain good bowel function.

L5 and S1 are the most common vertebrae involved. The condition may be associated with an overlying area of hyperpigmented skin, a dermal sinus, or an abnormal patch of hair. The majority of individuals with this malformation are asymptomatic although there is an increased incidence of tethered cord syndrome and lumbar SPONDYLOSIS.
