Conclusion  

 Adolescents  with  MMC  have  several  medical  problems  that  may  lead  to  serious  life  threatening  complicaHons.    

MulHdisciplinary,  coordinated,  life  long  follow  up  by  specialists  with  knowledge  of  MMC  is  necessary.    

Specialist  care  is  gejng  even  more  important  as  the  prevalence  of  MMC  is  decreasing.
