Figure 8.

Box‐and‐whiskers plots displaying rate of change in curvedness of unmyelinated white matter after open spina bifida (OSB) surgery in fetuses with and those without partial agenesis of corpus callosum (pACC) (a) and fetuses with ventriculomegaly (VM) of varying severity (b), compared with gestational age‐matched controls during immediate time period (difference between 1 week after fetal surgery and before fetal surgery), long‐term time period (difference between 6 weeks and 1 week after fetal surgery) and global time period (difference between long‐term and immediate time periods). Boxes with internal lines are median and interquartile range (IQR), whiskers are range and crosses are data points lying outside 1.5 × IQR. Only significant comparisons with controls within time periods are indicated. *OSB fetuses without pACC.
