Abstract
Open spina bifida is often diagnosed during pregnancy. In the last 20 years, fetal repair has been shown to have benefits to the neonate and child, and is now widely available, including within the UK. This article briefly examines the background, evidence, benefits and risks of fetal surgery for spina bifida.
