Meningomyelocele (Meningomyelocele)

Meningomyelocele, or neural tube defect, is one of the most common congenital malformations in children. It occurs as a result of disruption of the formation of the fetal neural tube in the early stages of pregnancy. As a result of this defect, the formation of the spinal cord and spine is impaired, which can lead to various complications, including paralysis, sensory impairment and other neurological problems.

Symptoms of meningomyelocele may include short stature, weakness, incoordination, paralysis and other neurological problems. Treatment for meningomyelocele may include surgery, medication, and rehabilitation.

Prevention of meningomyellocele involves regularly screening pregnant women for possible neural tube defects and providing preventive therapy if such defects are detected. It is also important to monitor the child’s development after birth to identify possible complications in a timely manner.



Meningomyocele is a congenital malformation of the fetus in which part of the spinal cord, along with skin and muscle tissue, protrudes through spinal defects in the form of a hernia. According to statistics, a congenital defect tends to be a unilateral and combined phenomenon, that is, it is observed less frequently among singleton cases. Noted
