A member asked:
What to do if partial lack of neural tube closure leads to which condition?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
ConsultPediNeurosurg: Sounds like a neural tube defect which can be evaluated by ultrasound before delivery. Consulting Neonatologist and possibly Pedi Neurosurgeon would be helpful to talk about what to expect. Prognosis variable-depending on location and type of defect.
