Summary

The aim of the study is to assess a new fetal surgery approach to repair open spina bifida. The fetal group hypothesis is to perform a minimally invasive procedure using a fetoscopic technique in order to access to amniotic cavity and make the endoscopic repair. This approach will allow investigators to make the closure of the defect and avoid the use of an hysterotomy, reducing the risk of maternal complications as uterine dehiscence (rupture), hemorrhage and preterm premature rupture of membranes (PPROM), the patient also will be able to have a vaginal delivery.
