Popis: Background Spina bifida often results in dysfunction of the central and peripheral nervous system. In spina bifida, the neural tube defect may be covered by skin (SBO) or open (SBA). Fetal surgery in SBA aims to preserve central axonal projections through the meningomyelocele (MMC) and to prevent secondary damage. The present study aimed to determine whether the natural coverage of the neural tube defect in SBO protects central axonal conduction, as could be measured by vesico-urodynamics.
