Main Article Content
Abstract
A study with 57 spina bifida pediatric patients was taken to reveal the role of microsurgery. Patients and method: a retrospective, cross-section, describre trial from January 2018 to September 2020 at National Pediatric hospital. Results: mean age: 6± 1.3 (months); 89.4% were infants. The female/male was 1.15/1. 10.5% patients was diagnosed prenatal period. Prensentation: motor-sensitve deficit (10.5%); sphinterian deficit (15.8%); hydrocephalus (15.8%). 78.9% lession located at sacro-coccyx segment; Spina bifida account for 96.5%. At the follow: normal location of spina was showed at 7% (compared with 3.5% presurgery); 78.95% of children had a good-grade quality of life.
