The Madras Institute of Orthopedics and Traumatology offers advanced Surgery for Spina Bifida using modern neurosurgical and spinal reconstruction techniques and individualized care plans. Established in 1999, the JCI, NABH accredited hospital is located in Chennai, India and has 1000 beds, providing comprehensive neurosurgical, pediatric, and spinal care for local and international patients.

Surgery for Spina Bifida is performed to repair or manage defects involving the spinal cord, nerves, and surrounding tissues. The surgical approach depends on the type and severity of spina bifida, the presence of an open spinal lesion, neurological involvement, hydrocephalus, and other associated abnormalities. In selected cases, surgery may be performed before birth or shortly after delivery to close an open spinal defect and protect exposed neural tissue.
