Spina bifida is one birth defect that affects the spine and spinal cord. The two do not go together and is part of the neural tube defects where embryonic structure that eventually develops into the baby's brain and spinal cord and tissues between them.
The neural tube forms early in pregnancy and by the 28th day it closes. Babies develop spina bifida when a portion of the neural tube fails to close properly or develop. The result is a spinal cord defect or bones in the spine. The defect can range from mild to severe all depending on location, complication, type and size.
