Congenital scoliosis

Congenital scoliosis is caused by the formation of abnormal vertebral bodies. The lack of vertebral bodies, hemivertebral bodies or intervertebral body joints can cause asymmetric growth, which can cause secondary deformities. Depending on the patient's age, gender, deformity, degree of scoliosis, segment length, type of deformity, flexibility and progression, doctors should choose different treatments.
