Baby's own umbilical cord could be key to better spina bifida surgery
NCT ID NCT06929572
Summary
This study is testing whether a patch made from a newborn's own umbilical cord tissue can improve the surgical repair of spina bifida. Researchers will use the tissue to close the spinal opening in 15 newborns, aiming to create a better spinal canal and reduce complications. They will compare results like wound healing and spinal fluid leaks to past surgeries done without the patch.
