What is spina bifida?
Spina bifida literally means ‘split spine’.
The
backbone usually provides a protective tube
of bones with the nerves (spinal cord) running
down the middle.
In spina bifida a fault in the
development of the spinal cord and
surrounding bones (vertebrae) leaves a gap
or split in the spine.
The spinal cord has not
formed properly, and may also be damaged.
What is hydrocephalus?
Hydrocephalus is caused by a build-up of
fluid inside the brain, resulting in increased
pressure.
Things that may cause
hydrocephalus include: premature birth,
meningitis, brain haemorrhage (stroke), cysts
or tumours.
Sometimes the cause is unknown.
It can lead to problems that affect everyday
life such as
difficulties with
co-ordination,
motivation,
organisational
skills, lack of
concentration
and shortterm memory.
