Overview
Early symptoms of patients with spina bifida include: Weakness or paralysis in the legs, Urinary incontinence, Bowel incontinence, Sensation problems in the lower extremity, Motor problems in the lower extrimity, Headache, orthopedic abnormalities, difficulties with executive functions, academic skills problems, learning disability and allergy to latex.

- Headache
- Orthopedic abnormalities:
- Difficulties with executive functions including:
- Planning
- Organizing
- Initiating
- Memory
- Problem solving
- Abstraction
- Visual planning
- Attention problems
- Academic skills problems include problem in:
- Methematics
