Spina bifida is a neural tube defect caused by an incomplete closure of the vertebrae and neural tube; the meninges and spinal cord protrude through the opening secondary to maternal folic-acid deficiency. The degree of neurological impairment depends on the location and the size of the defect. The infant may have hydrocephalus and genitourinary and orthopedic defects. Surgery is required.
