The sacrum is the posterior portion of the pelvis. The pelvis is similar to a shallow bowl and the sacrum is one of the three bones that make up the bowl. The sacrum is made of 5 fused vertebra. This lack of the sacrum is called Sacral Agenesis and is a birth defect. The improper development of the sacrum leads to other defects that include abnormalities of the urinary and lower digestive system as well as defects to the legs such as fused legs. The suspected cause of Sacral Agenesis is believed to be Folic Acid deficiency during fetal development.
