Successful Spine surgery at We Care India partner hospital allows Henry Stolz to live a normal life despite a microendoscopic Decompression. We Care india helped Henry find best super specialised surgeon for his procedure.
Surgery can help manage the problems, but it can not restore muscle function or sensation to a normal state. Surgical interventions may be needed for the following:
Repair and closure of the lesion.
Treatment of hydrocephalus.
Orthopaedic problems - Orthopaedic problems may include curvatures in the back, hip dislocations, ankle and foot deformities, and contracted muscles. Babies and children with spina bifida are also very susceptible to breaking their bones since their bones may be weaker than normal.
bowel and bladder problems - Bowel and bladder problems may require surgery to improve function in elimination, for incontinence, constipation, or when the bladder does not empty completely.
Following pediatric spina bifida surgery, you will receive instructions on caring for your baby at home. Education may include the following:
Examining the skin, especially over bony areas such as the elbows, buttocks, back of the thighs, heel, and foot areas. Recommendations may include changing your baby's position frequently to prevent skin breakdown and pressure sores.
Promoting bowel and bladder function.
Ways to feed your baby and monitor your baby's nutrition.
Promoting activity and mobility.
Encouraging age-appropriate growth and development.

Not all babies will require surgical repair of spina bifida. Non-surgical management of spina bifida may include the following:
Rehabilitation.
Positioning aids (used to help the child sit, lie, or stand).
Braces and splints (used to prevent deformity, promote support or protection).
Medications.
Latex precautions: Babies with spina bifida are at high risk for developing a latex allergy due to exposure to latex from multiple medical and surgical procedures. Precautions are taken by the healthcare team to reduce the baby's exposure to products that contain latex. Your baby's healthcare providers can help you identify products that contain latex and also find products that are latex-free.
Life-long considerations: Since spina bifida is a life-long condition that is not curable, management often focuses on preventing or minimizing deformities and maximizing the child's capabilities at home and in the community. Positive reinforcement will encourage the child to strengthen his/her self-esteem and promote as much independence as possible.
The full extent of the problem is usually not completely understood immediately after birth, but may be revealed as the child grows and develops.
