Fetal Surgery

The Management of Myelomeningocele Study (MOMS) was a study completed in 2010 which determined that in-utero fetal surgery to repair SB could be beneficial. As you can imagine, it is not without risks.

The procedure is very new, so only a few hospitals in the United States perform it.

Your best source for information on fetal surgery is other parents who have had the procedure done.

This is a Facebook Group for those who have undergone fetal surgery for spina bifida, or are considering it... to offer support, answer questions, or just connect!

Here is a video from the Today Show regarding the MOMS study.
