Neural Tube Defect PPT: Definition, Types, Diagnosis and Treatment

NTDs occur when the neural tube fails to properly seal. The early brain and spine are formed by the neural tube. These birth malformations frequently appear before a woman even realises she is pregnant and begin to manifest extremely early in pregnancy.

Spina bifida (a spinal cord disorder) and anencephaly are the two most prevalent NTDs (a brain defect).

Even if you do not want to become pregnant, the CDC advises taking 400 mcg of folic acid daily if you have already experienced a pregnancy that was affected by NTD.
