Meningocele

From WikiLectures

Types of spinal disorders

Meningocele (spina bifida cystica) is a split of the vertebral arch, from which emerges a sac made up of soft spinal cords (the dura mater usually ends at the neck of the sac). The content is cerebrospinal fluid, 1/3 of children are neurologically affected.

'Menigomyelocele (spina bifida aperta) is a variant of meningocele that occurs a little more often and is less favorable. In addition to the packages, there is also spinal cord in the hernial sac.

Therapy[edit | edit source]

On admission, place the child on the stomach and exclude pressure on the meningomyelocele. In case of perforation, apply ATB and cover the bearing with a mule. We operate within 24 hours. In complete motor paraplegia and sphincter lesions, this cannot be improved by any surgery, but surgery is in order to prevent infection.
