Fetoscopic versus Open Repair for Spina Bifida Aperta: A Systematic Review of Outcomes.

چکیده
OBJECTIVE To compare outcomes of fetoscopic spina bifida aperta repair (FSBAR) with the results of the open approach (OSBAR) as in the Management Of Myelomeningocele Study (MOMS). METHODS This was a systematic comparison of reports on FSBAR with data from the MOMS (n = 78). Inclusion criteria were studies of spina bifida aperta patients who underwent FSBAR and were followed for ≥12 months. Primary outcome was perinatal mortality. Secondary outcomes included operative, maternal, fetal, neonatal and infant outcomes. RESULTS Out of 16 reports, we included 5 from 2 centers. Due to bias and heterogeneity, analysis was restricted to two overlapping case series (n = 51 and 71). In those, FSBAR was technically different from OSBAR, had comparable perinatal mortality (7.8 vs. 2.6%, p = 0.212) and shunt rate at 12 months (45 vs. 40%, p = 0.619), longer operation time (223 vs. 105 min, p < 0.001), higher preterm prelabor membrane rupture rate (84 vs. 46%, p < 0.001), earlier gestational age at birth (32.9 vs. 34.1 weeks, p = 0.03), higher postnatal reoperation rate (28 vs. 2.56%, p < 0.001) and absence of uterine thinning or dehiscence (0 vs. 36%, p < 0.001). Functional outcomes were not available. CONCLUSION FSBAR utilizes a different neurosurgical technique, takes longer to complete, induces more prematurity, requires additional postnatal procedures, yet has a comparable shunt rate and is not associated with uterine thinning or dehiscence. Long-term functional data are awaited.

Application potential of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell (BMSCs) based tissue-engineering for spinal cord defect repair in rat fetuses with spina bifida aperta.
Spina bifida aperta are complex congenital malformations resulting from failure of fusion in the spinal neural tube during embryogenesis. Despite surgical repair of the defect, most patients who survive with spina bifida aperta have a multiple system handicap due to neuron deficiency of the defective spinal cord. Tissue engineering has emerged as a novel treatment for replacement of lost tissue...

CASE SUMMARY Two castrated male cats, aged 8 months old (case 1) and 10 months old (case 2), showed a history of progressive paraparesis, an over-reaching pelvic limb gait, urinary incontinence and a palpable dermoid fistula. In case 1, the fistula was connected to the dural sac on the conus medullaris, and the tethered spinal cord was retracted caudally. In case 2, the tubular structure was co...

Eight of the 22 patients had spina bifida aperta, and 14 had spina bifida occulta. These included eight cases with repaired myelomeningocele, seven with an intraspinal lipoma and tethering of cord , three with dermal sinuses, and one with diastematomyelia. Bulging and low signal intensity of the nucleus pulposus on T2-weighted images are the criteria for disk degeneration [1 , 2] . In our study...
