Spina Bifida is a serious congenital condition that affects the spine and spinal cord. It occurs when the spinal column does not close completely during early fetal development. If left untreated, it can lead to lifelong complications, including physical disabilities, nerve damage, and mobility issues. Thankfully, with timely and expert neurosurgical intervention, children born with this condition can lead a significantly improved quality of life.
