The intrauterine repair of myelomeningocele presents certain advantages and has gained widespread acceptance. It significantly reduces the incidence of Chiari-2 anomalies and hydrocephalus, and it is thought to enhance the neurologic outcome.

There are ethical, organizational, neurological, obstetrical, and postnatal aspects worth discussing.
