Spina bifida can range from mild to severe. The types of spina bifida include spina bifida occulta (least severe), meningocele, and myelomeningocele (most severe form). Risk factors for spina bifida include Vitamin B-9 deficiency, family history of neural tube defects, increased body temperature, etc. Some forms of treatment include surgery before birth, cesarean sections, and ongoing care (eg: physical therapy). ICD-10-CM code: Q05.9-spina bifida unspecified. There is an instructional note in ICD-10-CM to use an additional code for any associated paraplegia (paraparesis), if applicable.
