Our Colorado Fetal Care Center offers two types of fetal surgery for Myelomeningocele (MMC). One option — fetoscopic MMC repair — is less invasive and offers parents more options for future deliveries. Learn about the advances that make this surgery possible and the differences between open surgery and fetoscopic MMC repair.
Children’s Hospital Colorado offers advanced in-utero surgery to repair MMC, the most severe form of spina bifida. Spina bifida is a birth defect affecting the spinal canal and by performing MMC fetal surgery before birth, our fetal surgeons can help give your baby a better chance at a great outcome. Watch the video to learn more about fetoscopic MMC repair.
