Response to Letter to the Editor re ‘Fetal repair of myelomeningocele: Current status and urologic implications’

We thank Dr. Macedo and colleagues for their letter which appropriately highlights their group's recent prospective research in children following in utero myelomeningocele closure. We recognize their efforts in this challenging patient population, and we most certainly agree that their work has contributed significantly to the field of Pediatric Urology. The data presented in their letter and referenced studies are indeed important contributions to the existing literature and further reaffirm the need for careful, proactive management of patients with neurogenic bladder irrespective of the timing of closure.
