Extractions: Spina Bifida Meine erste Bekanntschaft mit Spina Bifida und die Geburt unserer Tochter Danara Doreen Bei einer routinemäßigen Ultraschalluntersuchung bei unserem ungeborenen Kind stellte der Frauenarzt meiner Freundin eine Unregelmäßigkeit an der Wirbelsäule des Kindes fest. Da er sich aber nicht sicher war, worum es sich handelte, bekamen wir eine Überweisung zu einem Frauenarzt in Hannover der sich mit so etwas besser auskennen sollte. Nach einer sehr genauen Ultraschalluntersuchung durch Dr. Schwerdtfeger in Hannover teilte dieser uns mit, das unser Kind einen Defekt im Rückenbereich hat. Einen sogenannten Offenen Rücken. Erst einmal brach für uns eine Welt zusammen, wir hatten nie auch nur einen Gedanken daran verschwendet, das unser Kind nicht gesund sein könnte. Doch jetzt sollte alles ganz anders sein. Ich glaube, das was uns so zermürbt hat war, das uns niemand unsere ganzen Fragen beantworten konnte. Wird unser Kind je Laufen können ? Wird es eine Chance im Leben haben ? Und viele anderer solcher Fragen standen für uns offen. Dr. Schwerdtfeger hatte uns zwar gesagt, das es auf jedenfall mit einem Kaiserschnitt zur Welt kommt und das es nach der Geburt sofort operiert werden muss, aber was passiert danach mit unserem Kind. Er meinte zwar, das es ein gutes Zeichen wäre, das unser Kind die Beine im Mutterleib selbstständig bewegt, aber das war für uns nur ein schwacher Trost. Zur Zeit heisst es wohl einfach nur abwarten.

http://www.illinoisspinabifidaassociation.com/

Extractions: The Illinois Spina Bifida Association® (ISBA) is a non-profit organization dedicated to improving the quality of life of people with spina bifida through direct services, information, referral, research, and public awareness Spina bifida is the failure of the spine to close properly during the first month of pregnancy and results in varying degrees of paralysis, loss of sensation in the lower limbs, difficulty with bowel and bladder management, hydrocephalus, and learning disabilities. It takes a team of parents, doctors, therapists, teachers and others to help a person with spina bifida achieve maximum potential. But with proper attention, that person's potential is unlimited. The cause of spina bifida is unknown, and the scientific community is unable to explain whether the determinants of spina bifida are genetic or environmental. Recent scientific research, however, shows that folic acid, a common B vitamin, may prevent more than half of all spina bifida births. According to the United States Center for Disease Control, if all women of childbearing age in the United States who are capable of becoming pregnant would consume 0.4 mg. of folic acid per day, the incidence of spina bifida could be reduced by over 70%. Background: The ISBA was founded in 1969 as a 501(c)3 non-profit social and health services advocacy organization, providing programs and direct services that help individuals with spina bifida live to their fullest potential. The mission, of the ISBA is to improve the quality of life for people with spina bifida and their families through direct services, information, referrals, and public awareness. The ISBA currently operates twenty-two (22) programs for nearly 1,000 families in Illinois, most of whom live in the greater Metropolitan Chicago area. The ISBA currently manages its programs and direct services with only two staff members, one full time and one part-time, and with the assistance of many volunteers.

Extractions: Fetal Surgery for Spina Bifida November 18, 1999 Spina bifida is a relatively common birth defect which occurs in 1 to 2 of every 1,000 babies born in the United States. "Spina bifida" literally means "split spine"; it is caused by failure of the spinal cord to develop properly. The nervous system develops from embryonic tissue called the ectoderm. The first sign of the developing nervous system is the neural plate which can be seen at about the 16th day of development. Over the next few days, a "trench" is formed in the neural plate - this creates a neural groove. By the 21st day of development, a neural tube is formed when the edges of the neural groove meet. The rostral (front) part of the neural tubes goes on to develop into the brain and the rest of the neural tube develops into the spinal cord. Spina bifida occurs when the neural tube is not formed properly; the bones of spinal column (the vertebrae) and muscle fail surround the spinal cord properly. No one knows exactly what causes spina bifida, but it is thought that both environmental and genetic factors play a role. Development of the Nervous System
