Following institutional approval, and through the courtesy of the Alan Mason Chesney Archives, the authors reviewed the Johns Hopkins Hospital surgical files from 1896 to 1912. Patients presenting with spinal dysraphism who underwent surgical intervention by Dr. Harvey Cushing were selected for further analysis. Ten patients presented for surgical intervention for spinal dysraphism, and 7 of these had concurrent hydrocephalus. The mean age of these patients was 5.8 months (range 1\u201314 months). The mean length of stay was 20.4 days. There were 6 inpatient deaths. At the time of last follow-up, 2 patients were well, 1 patient remained unimproved, and 1 patient (for whom no discharge outcome was available) had died. The cases described in detail offer insight into the breadth of Cushing's practice and the varied approaches he employed. The use of Faradic stimulation to assess nerve root function, the use of complex multilayered closures, and the creation of operative tables for combined treatment of hydrocephalus and spinal dysraphism illustrate Cushing's contributions to developing the field of pediatric neurosurgery.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3171\/2010.10.peds10351","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2010,12,31]],"date-time":"2010-12-31T14:36:41Z","timestamp":1293806201000},"page":"47-51","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Harvey Cushing and early spinal dysraphism repair at Johns Hopkins Hospital"],"prefix":"10.3171","volume":"7","author":[{"given":"Courtney","family":"Pendleton","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Departments of Neurosurgery and"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Edward S.","family":"Ahn","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Departments of Neurosurgery and"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"George I.","family":"Jallo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Departments of Neurosurgery and"},{"name":"Oncology, Johns Hopkins School of Medicine, Baltimore, Maryland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Alfredo","family":"Qui\u00f1ones-Hinojosa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Departments of Neurosurgery and"},{"name":"Oncology, Johns Hopkins School of Medicine, Baltimore, Maryland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1754","reference":[{"key":"b1-0070047","series-title":"Semin Fetal Neonatal Med","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"9","DOI":"10.1016\/j.siny.2009.05.002","article-title":"Fetal myelomeningocele: natural history, pathophysiology, and in-utero intervention","volume":"15","author":"Adzick","year":"2010"},{"key":"b2-0070047","series-title":"BMJ","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"84","DOI":"10.1136\/bmj.37945.610914.EE","article-title":"Is there a familial link between Down's syndrome and neural tube defects?
