Spina Bifida Clinic

The spina bifida clinic at MUSC Children's Hospital is available to all patients who carry the following diagnoses: occulta, lipomeningocele, meningocele, myelomeningocele and sacral agenesis. The clinic is available for consultation, referral and ongoing care covering prenatal patients through early adulthood.

The clinic meets on one Tuesday per month and is multidisciplinary in nature, meaning a team of health care professionals with intensive knowledge in spina bifida care is available to assist our patients and their families.
