10If the neural tube fails to fuse and separate
from the surface ectoderm, and therefore,
develops abnormally, then craniorachischisis
totalis- the entire neural tube fails to close
properly exencephaly, anencephaly,
craniorachischisis - incomplete development of
the cranial neural tube, resulting in a brain
that is an undifferentiated and exposed
mass rachischisis, myeloschisis - spinal cord
region fails to develop inionschisis -failure of
the neural tube near the occipital region to fuse
11exencephaly, anencephaly, craniorachischisis -
incomplete development of the cranial neural
tube, resulting in a brain that is an
undifferentiated and exposed mass
12inionschisis -failure of the neural tube to fuse
near the occipital region
13neural tube
vertebra
14spinal dysraphism - failure of neural tube to
close, usually at the cranial or caudal
neuropore spina bifida - failure of the vertebral
arches to fuse due to spinal dysraphism cele -
membranous sac protruding at the point of the
defect, usually components of the meninges, but
continuous with the skin
hydrocephaly - increased volume and pressure in
the cerebral ventricles due to interruption of
proper flow of cerebral spinal fluid
15If the neural tube develops normally, but its
failure to close in a timely fashion results in
failure of the vertebral arches to fuse, then
spinal bifida occulta- single vertebral arch
fails to fuse meningocele - protrusion of the
meninges through the defect meningomyelocele -
neural tissue and meninges protrude this is what
clinicians call spina bifida
16spinal bifida occulta- single vertebral arch
fails to fuse meningocele - protrusion of the
meninges through the defect meningomyelocele -
neural tissue and meninges protrude
Note that, even thought the neural tube fails to
close in a timely fashion, it may develop
normally. Here we have an apparently normal
CNS development, but a defect of the vertebral
arches. The vertebral defect may affect proper
CNS function
17meningomyelocele (a.k.a. spina bifida) - neural
tissue and meninges protrude

(single layer of cells)
cells proliferate, making neural tube stratified
(multiple layers of cells) so, neural tube gets
thicker, neural canal gets narrower

28Basal plate can be divided into --ventral
somatic motor neurons --dorsal autonomic
(preganglionic) motor neurons
29Some of these neurons also have collateral
branches --DRG neurons also project to
brainstem DCML --alar plate neurons have
numerous collateral projections
