DOI: 10.1007/s00381-018-3984-6
Abstract: PurposeThe literature on histopathological and molecular changes that might underlie secondary tethered cord syndrome (TCS) after myelomeningocele (MMC) repair surgeries remains sparse. To address this problem, we analyzed specimens, which were obtained during untethering surgeries… read more here.
