Spina bifida is a birth defect that happens when a baby's backbone (spine) does not form normally. As a result, the spinal cord and the nerves that branch out of it may be damaged. The term spina bifida comes from Latin and literally means split or open spine. This defect happens at the end of the first month of pregnancy, when a baby's spine and spinal cord (a bundle of nerves that runs down the center of the spine) are developing.
Facts about the condition. 1. Spina bifida is a birth defect that involves the neural tube, which is the part of the embryo that eventually develops into the brain and spinal cord. With spina bifida the neural tube does not close properly, leading to problems with the spinal cord and bones in the spine. 2. Cases of spina bifida disability range from mild to severe, in three times. 3. Spina bifida occulta is mild, with a small separation or gap between bones in the spina.
