Summary

Spina bifida is one of the neural tube defects that cause neuromuscular dysfunction. Spina bifida is a disease accompanied by motor paralysis, musculoskeletal problems, Arnold-Chiari malformation, osteoporosis, hydrocephalus, upper limb coordination disorder. The affected upper extremity functionality and hand skills are very important for independence in daily living activities.

There are some studies in the literature showing that upper extremity motor function is affected in patients with spina bifida. However, no study was found in which the upper extremity was investigated in terms of sensory and motor proficiency.The social and professional aspects of the upper extremity are of great importance.Therefore, our study aims to investigate the effects of upper extremity sensory and motor proficiency in patients with spina bifida
