Zusammenfassung:	Thirty-three families of individual with a history of spina bifida with myelomeningocele were studied. Each member was HLA typed and had a spinal X-ray. The incidence of spina bifida occulta and laminal asymmetry of the lumbo-sacral spine in sibs and parents is high. No association between these abnormalities and the HLA system was found.
