The aim of this study was to analyse the long-term outcome of children and adolescents born with myelomeningocele.
Sixty-six children aged from 3 to 21 years old, all patients of the Paediatric Surgery Clinic of the Medical Academy in Białystok, were evaluated. The hospital records were reviewed and data was obtained from parents, using a questionnaire designed by authors. The material was classified with respect to the degree of disability using Lagergren's scale.
15 (23 %) patients had no physical or mental handicap, 18 (27 %) were moderately handicapped, 20 (30 %) were severely handicapped, 13 (20 %) were very severely handicapped.
A higher spinal cord lesion, hydrocephalus and complications due to its surgical management had a negative influence on development of children born with myelomeningocele.

15名(23%)患者没有身体或智力障碍,18名(27%)为中度残疾,20名(30%)为重度残疾,13名(20%)为极重度残疾。
