Caudal to the focal lesion, white matter degeneration is limited to the descending spinal cord tracts in the ventral funiculi and deep portions of the lateral funiculi.
The disparity in diameter of the cranial and caudal orifices of the vertebral foramen was apparent on removal of the spinal cord segments.
An impinging vertebral body malformation, usually the craniodorsal aspect of the caudal of the two involved vertebral bodies, may be excised by means of the high speed drill under direct visualization with minimal hazard of inadvertent spinal cord laceration.

 Introduction/Background
Caudal to the vestibulocochlear nerve you may see another light tuft of nerves that are made up of the glossopharyngeal nerve(IX) blending into the more caudal vagus nerve (X).
The fused part of the X is the optic chiasm.
Just anterior to the interpeduncular cistern, locate the small, but distinct, protuberance lying on the midline; this is the mammillary body, and it marks the caudal limit of the hypothalamus, as seen from the ventral approach.

 Roleof Caudal, Pudendal and Paracervical blocks
Vaginal and perineal pain when lumbar or caudal epidural or spinal analgesia is unavailable, contraindicated or declined.
Caudal, Paracervical and Pudendal nerve blocks: Their place in modern obstetric anaesthetic practice.
Since it has been shown that pencil point spinal needles have a low incidence of headache (0 to 0.66% with 27G and 25G Whitacre needles) (1, 7) spinal anaesthesia is often more appropriate than lumbar or caudal epidural anaesthesia for rotational forceps, manual removal of placenta and, at times, low forceps delivery.

 BioMed Central Full text Prenatal diagnosis of Caudal Regression Syndrome : a case report
SSD and caudal regression syndrome probably represent two faces of a single spectrum of segmental malformations of the spine and spinal cord.
Segmental spinal dysgenesis (SSD) is a rare congenital abnormality in which a segment of the spine and spinal cord fails to develop properly.
Visualization of the anomalies such as amputation of the spine and the deformities of extremities which were described in this report should not be difficult, particularly with normal amniotic fluid.

Because caudal cruciate ligament rupture is usually associated with other ligamentous injuries, the re-establishment of joint stability may require a composite of extra-articular and intra-articular techniques.
The cranial cruciate ligament is the primary check against hyperextension of the stifle.( 4) Therefore, as the stifle is hyperextended, the cranial cruciate ligament is the first structure to be subject to injury.
This is probably due to the fact that, with the exception of caudal displacement of the tibia, the caudal cruciate ligament is protected from extremes of motion by other joint structures.

 Radiology of the Equine Lungs and Thorax
Radiographic technology commonly available to practitioners can produce diagnostic images of the dorsal thorax including the base of the heart and the caudal dorsal and the caudal ventral thorax; a total of six projections are usually sufficient for a bilateral study.
Radiographs of the cranial thorax are not often diagnostic even when using the most sophisticated radiographic equipment and techniques.
This pattern could be confused with chronic cavitary lung disease.

 Caudal Epidural Anaesthesia (page 1)
The sacrum is a triangular bone that consists of the five fused sacral vertebrae (S1- S5).
Anaesthesia can be provided for superficial operations such as skin grafting, perineal procedures, and lower limb surgery.
When correctly performed there is little danger of either the spinal cord or dura being damaged.

 The Human Tail, and Other Tales of Evolution by David Menton
The caudal appendage brings this reality to the fore and makes it tangible and inescapable.
Also, all true tails have muscles associated with their vertebrae which permit some movement of the tail.
In fact, the caudal appendage Ledley described is merely a fatty outgrowth of skin that wasn't located in the right place on the back to be a tail!

 Caudal Regression Syndrome,Caudal Dysplasia,Caudal Dysplasia Sequence,Sacral Agenesis, Congenital,Sacral Regression
The 'Syndrome of Caudal Regression' involves in variable proportion anomalies of the anorectum, urinary and genital systems, lumbosacral spine, and lower limbs.
Caudal regression is sometimes associated with other congenital anomalies such as spina bifida, meningocele, clubfoot, bladder and/or bowel dysfunction, anal and genital defects, and cleft lip or palate.
Caudal Regression Syndrome is a rare disorder characterized by abnormal development of the lower spine end of the developing fetus.

 Ceratosauria
There are large postzygopophyses and a moderate sized rectangular neural spine, with ventral margins sloping towards the zygopophyses, especially the postzygopophyses.
Diagnosis - (after Carrano et al., 2002) long axis of postorbital slanted anteroventrally/posterodorsally; frontals fused to parietals; quadratojugal fused to quadrate; interdental plates striated medially.
(2004) determined the vertebrae were distal caudals, not dorsals as suggested by Huene and Matley (1933).

 Continuous caudal anesthesia

Continuous caudal analgesia-anesthesia could be given to control pain during the various stages of labor, delivery, or Caesarean section.
An important breakthrough in the management of childbirth pain was the introduction of continuous caudal analgesia in 1942 by W.B. Edwards and R.A. Hingson who taught at Philadelphia General Hospital.

 Tyrannosauroidea
Diagnosis- antarticular present; lateral longitudinal ridge present on proximal caudal prezygopophyses; two large fossae on the lateral postacetabular surface; anterior and greater trochanters with minimal separation; accessory trochanter; posterior trochanter present; tibiofibular crest powerfully developed; tibia broader mediolaterally than long anteroposteriorly in proximal view; tibia, fibula, astragalus and calcaneum fused.
Comments- This taxon was originally placed in the Avetheropoda by Osmolska (1996).
Comments- The sacral vertebrae originally referred to the holotype, and used to suggest the specimen is immature, are actually protostegid dorsal centra (Cope, 1870; Baird, 1978), made the holotype of Pneumatoarthrus pelorus.

 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Evolution
In spite of some characteristics that remind one of reptiles–as for instance the twenty homologous caudal vertebr&;, the talons, the separated metacarpal bones and the toothed jaw–yet the true bird nature is evinced by the plumage, the pinions, and the bill.
In fact, Archæopteryx is far removed from the reptiles, nor does it constitute any connecting link with the later birds, not even with the toothed Ichthyornis and Hesperonis of the upper Cretaceous era.
The first known bird is the famous "bird-reptile" Archæopteryx of the Jurassic strata at Soluhofen.
