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.
