Scoliosis is a rotation and sideways S- or C-shaped curving of the spine. Scoliosis usually isn’t life-threatening, and those who have it can live normal and active lives. While there are no known ways to prevent the development of scoliosis, early diagnosis and treatment can help prevent the condition from getting worse.

There are several types of scoliosis, each type ranging from mild to severe, that can occur in infants, children, teens, and adults.

• IDIOPATHIC SCOLIOSIS is the most common type and can run in families.
• NEUROMUSCULAR SCOLIOSIS is associated with conditions such as cerebral palsy, spina bifida, muscular dystrophy, or spinal muscular atrophy, which lead to imbalances in the muscles and nerves that support the spine.
• CONGENITAL SCOLIOSIS is a relatively rare form of the condition that is the result of abnormal spinal developments before birth.

Just as the causes and severity of scoliosis can vary, so can treatment options. That means it is natural to have questions. Connect with the experts at Gillette Children’s today to help make sense of how the diagnosis and treatment process can look for your child.
