Spina bifida results from failure of fusion of the caudal neural tube, and is one of the most common malformations of human structure. The causes of this disorder are heterogeneous and include chromosome abnormalities, single gene disorders, and teratogenic exposures. However, the cause is not known in most cases. Up to 70% of spina bifida cases can be

Pediatric Clinics of North America, 1996
Spina bifida (myelomeningocele) is the most common major birth defect among live-born infants. It is now recognized that half of those cases are preventable if folate is given periconceptionally. Epidemiology is discussed, together with an overview of approaches to orthopedic problems from birth to maturity.

Myelomeningocele, commonly known as spina bifida, is a birth defect in which the spinal cord does not develop properly due to incomplete closure of the neural tube at 28 days of gestation. With advances in treatment modalities, technologies, and medical knowledge, people with spina bifida in the United States are living well into adulthood ...

Questionnaire data were obtained from 137 spina bifida adults aged 18-25 years and additional more sensitive information was obtained by interviewing 35 of them. Although 52% had attended college, many found the courses of little relevance to finding employment. 45% had been employed at some time, but only 23% were presently employed. Employability was

Teratology, 1997
Splitting birth defects into dysmorphologically homogeneous groups might improve the ability to detect a genetic risk factor or teratogenic exposure. With regard to spina bifida, recent studies suggest that etiologic heterogeneity exists within the group of spina bifida, although exogenous risk factors have been sparsely evaluated for subgroups. In the
