    Partial amniotic carbon dioxide insufflation (PACI) during minimally invasive fetoscopic interventions on fetuses with spina bifida aperta

    We retrospectively evaluated 65 cases of pregnant women undergoing minimally invasive fetoscopic patch coverage of fetal SBA under general materno-fetal anesthesia and with the help of PACI (maternal age range 19–41 years) (Table 1 ). The …

    Muscle echogenicity is increased in fetuses with spina bifida aperta

    In spina bifida aperta (SBA), movements caudal to the meningomyelocele (MMC) are present in utero, but they disappear shortly after birth. Insight in onset and progression of movement loss is therapeutically relevant. Determination of muscle …

    Evolution of neural function in spina bifida occulta and aperta

    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 …

    In spina bifida aperta, muscle ultrasound can quantify the “second hit of damage”

    In spina bifida aperta (SBA), leg movements caudal to the myelomeningocele (MMC) are transiently present before birth but disappear shortly thereafter [ 24 – 26 ]. This phenomenon has been attributed to the “second hit of damage” involving delayed …

    Can muscle ultrasound density in early life predict motor outcome in spina bifida aperta?

    Spina bifida aperta (SBA) is associated with neurological function loss caudal to the meningomyelocele (MMC). At birth, leg movements are transiently present, but they do not reliably predict motor outcome. Pediatric neuromuscular studies have …

    Does fetal endoscopic closure of the myelomeningocele prevent loss of neurologic function in spina bifida aperta?

    Spina bifida aperta (SBA) is associated with shunt-dependent hydrocephalus and with meningomyelocele (MMC). Fetal endoscopic closure of the MMC may reduce shunt-dependency, but the benefit upon motor function in individual patients is still …
