In Brief

A clinical study evaluating Minimally invasive fetoscopic repair of MMC for Spina Bifida and 2 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 3 participants across 1 site.

Detailed Summary

Researchers are studying a new minimally invasive technique (fetoscopic repair) for repair of spina bifida (MMC) during the second trimester of pregnancy. Researchers are trying to determine if this less invasive surgical approach will have less risk to the mother and at the same time adequate closure of the fetal spina bifida defect.
