Spina Bifida

Spina Bifida is a collective name that refers to any birth defect involving incomplete closure of the spine. This congenital malformation occurs during the first month of pregnancy. The most common type of Spina Bifida is Myelomeningocele, a neural tube defect in which the bones of the spine do not completely form. This causes the spinal cord and its tissues to bulge and stick out of the child's back.

Dysfunctions in the spinal cord itself and the nerve roots can also occur. This defective closure can arise anywhere along the spine, from the neck to the rump bone and tail bones, but is most often found in the loin area. Enclosure of the Spina Bifida is performed as soon as possible, preferably within 24 hours of birth.
