Spinal dysraphism is a group of congenital conditions involving abnormal development of the spine, spinal cord, or surrounding tissues.
Conditions may include spina bifida, tethered spinal cord, and other congenital abnormalities affecting the development of spinal structures.
Surgery may be considered when there is neurological impairment, spinal cord tethering, progressive symptoms, or a structural defect requiring correction.
The risks vary depending on the condition, age, anatomy, and neurological involvement. Careful planning and specialized surgical techniques help manage these risks.
Some patients may benefit from physiotherapy, rehabilitation, or ongoing neurological monitoring to support mobility, strength, and functional recovery.
