A member asked:
Can you tell me about the relationship between cranioschisis and neural tube defects (ntds)?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Same thing: Cranioschisis is simply a type of neural tube defect. Cranioschisis refers to when the cranial end of the neural tube does not close and the skull and brain do not form properly as a result. There are other types of neural tube defects which affect the development of the spinal cord instead of the brain. Spina bifida is an example.
