Effect of very preterm delivery on outcomes following in utero spina bifida repair
Abstract Objective In utero fetal spina bifida repair decreases the risk for cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) diversion including ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunt placement, reverses hindbrain herniation, and improves motor function with a higher likelihood of independent ambulation. Unfortunately, in utero surgery can be complicated by preterm delivery.

CSF is secreted by the choroid plexus in each ventricle. The choroid plexus water channel, aquaporin 1, is not required for CSF secretion and thus brain fluid dynamics, whereas the Na+, K+, 2Cl‐ cotransporter 1 is a key factor in this process. Elevated ventricular K+ alters the transport activity to clear brain K+ while maintaining the CSF secretion ...
