    Spina Bifida

    Uploaded by

    Kevin
    This document discusses predisposing and precipitating factors for neural tube defects like spina bifida that can occur during early pregnancy development. It provides an overview of the embryonic development process during the first month, including how the neural tube forms and can fail to properly close or fuse in some segments. Different types of spina bifida are described based on whether the opening in the spine is covered by skin (closed) or exposes the spinal cord and meninges (open).
