What about spina bifida

summary

For our spine, we all know that it is a very important bone organ, but whether it is a disease or an accident, some people will encounter spina bifida. If you have this disease, then the harm to patients is very big. So, for spina bifida, is there any treatment?

What about spina bifida

First: dominant spina bifida, dominant spina bifida, all need surgical treatment, the operation time is 1-3 months after birth. Simple meningocele or other types with mild neurological symptoms should be operated as soon as possible. If the operation is delayed due to the general condition, the local area should be protected, especially the exposed spinal cord, to prevent infection. The principle of operation is to divide and release the adhesions around, put the spinal cord or nerve root of the posterior process into the spinal canal, remove the extra dural sac, closely suture the opening of the meninges, and turn over the fascia on both sides of the hiatus to repair the defect of the vertebral lamina (bone graft, etc.). For the patients with tethered cord syndrome, we can explore the spinal canal, release the adhesion and cut off the filum terminalis.

Second, general cases of spina bifida occulta do not need treatment, but medical knowledge should be popularized to eliminate the tension and bad psychological state of patients. If the symptoms are mild, the lumbar muscle (or abdominal muscle) exercise should be emphasized to enhance the internal balance of the waist. For our spine, it is not only an important organ to maintain our body standing and walking, but also has other important functions in many cases. So if our spine has a problem, then we must treat it in time to prevent the deterioration of the disease and more unexpected injuries.

Third: for the aggravation of patients with recessive spina bifida, after careful examination by the hospital, should be surgical treatment. The purpose of the operation is to remove the fibrous and adipose tissue that oppresses the nerve root. For patients who are already very serious at birth, it may not be easy to return to normal after surgery.

matters needing attention

Congenital invisible spina bifida patients, no symptoms do not need too much attention, such as low back pain and other symptoms, need more rest, and give physical therapy and other methods of treatment. Correct attitude, more understanding of relevant knowledge, relieve tension.
