【 摘 要 】

Introduction: Spinal dysraphism is a heterogeneous group of congenital spinal anomalies resulting from defective closure of the neural tube early in fetal life and anomalous development of the caudal cell mass. Meningomyelocele is common among Neural tube defects. Patients with myelomeningocele present with a spectrum of impairments, including primary functional deficits like are lower limb paralysis, sensory loss, bladderbowel dysfunction and cognitive dysfunction. Medical, surgical management and rehabilitation have helped patients with neural tube defects to participate and be productive in mainstream society. The aims of this study were to review the clinical presentation, surgical management and their outcome in the patient with spinal dysraphism.
