The Society for Research into Hydrocephalus and Spina Bifida (SRHSB) was founded in 1956 by a group of physicians and surgeons interested in developing treatments for the conditions. At the time, spina bifida, a spinal condition which develops early in pregnancy resulting in various degrees of paralysis and disability, occurred in over 15 per 10,000 live births, making it one of the most common serious birth defects. In most cases it was accompanied by hydrocephalus – an accumulation of cerebrospinal fluid in the brain which can cause progressive brain damage leading to serious disability and death if left untreated.
