Neural Tube Defects Neural tube defects are birth defects of the brain, spine, or spinal cord. They happen in the first month of pregnancy, often before a woman even knows that she is pregnant.

There is usually nerve damage that causes at least some paralysis of the legs. In anencephaly, most of the brain and skull do not develop.
