Does a sacral 1 hidden vertebral plate fissure in children cause polyuria?

Patient's question:

My child has had frequent urination since childhood, and now at the age of 9, it's still the same. They also have difficulty holding it in. We haven't spared any effort in checking, and they had their kidney function tested at Kunming Children's Hospital. Additionally, they had ultrasounds of the bladder and lateral and frontal X-rays of the lumbar-sacral spine.

Doctor's answer:

Analysis of the condition: Spina bifida is divided into two types: manifest spina bifida with meningocele and hidden spina bifida.
Advice: If a child still wets the bed after the age of 7 and exhibits the following symptoms, it may be caused by hidden spina bifida. The symptoms include frequent urination during the day, once every hour, an inability to hold urine, urinary frequency and urgency. The child also wets the bed during midday naps, regardless of the duration. At night, the frequency is particularly high, with once every hour, and the child wets the bed without being called more than 4-6 times. If the above conditions are present, it can be considered as caused by hidden spina bifida. With targeted treatment, complete recovery and cure are possible.
The choice of medicine lies with the person, but healing depends on the heart. It is essential to trust science.
