摘要
1986年1月至1997年12月,在迈杜古里大学教学医院(UMTH)发现了97例神经管缺陷。男女(M:F)比为1.4:1,病变最常见于腰骶区。大多数患者来自农村自给社区。第一顺序出生的婴儿最容易出现神经管缺陷。常见的相关异常包括脑积水、括约肌功能障碍、肢体麻痹和功能障碍。关键词:神经管缺陷,管理,经验。生物医学科学年鉴Vol. 1 (2) 2002: pp. 136-140
Experience In The Management Of Neural Tube Defects At The University Of Maiduguri Teaching Hospital, Nigeria
Between January 1986 and December 1997, 97 cases of neural tube defects were seen at the University of Maiduguri Teaching Hospital (UMTH) Maiduguri. Male to female (M:F) ratio of 1.4:1 was observed with the commonest location of lesion being at the lumbo-sacral region. Majority of the patients came from rural subsistent communities. The first order birth was noticed to be the most susceptible to neural tube defect. Commonly associated abnormalities included hydrocephalus, sphincteric dysfunction, limb paralysis and dysfunction. Keywords : Neural tube defects, Management, Experience. Annals of Biomedical Science Vol. 1 (2) 2002: pp. 136-140
