title: A report on spina bifida.
abstract: The condition of Spina Bifida or Meningomyelocele, has become more prevalent in Queensland schools because of improved surgical measures developed since 1958. Many of the children are able to attend normal schools but some are in need of constant medical care. At Montrose Home for Crippled Children (run by the Queensland Society for Crippled Children) during the years 1970-74, twenty-seven Spina Bifida children have been admitted because of their physical needs. Most of these children are severely handicapped physically and moderately handicapped mentally.
