Fetal surgery for myelomeningocele.

Leslie N Sutton¹, N Scott Adzick, Mark P Johnson.

Abstract

INTRODUCTION: Although in utero treatment of myelomeningocele shows promise in decreasing the morbidity of this disease, the risks to the fetus are significant, and the benefits are unproven. TRIAL: The upcoming trial represents one of the few times that the pediatric neurosurgical community has come together to test a new procedure.
