WHAT DOES CURVATURE OF THE SPINE MEAN IN ENGLISH?

curvature of the spine

Scoliosis

Scoliosis is a medical condition in which a person's spine is curved from side to side. Although it is a complex three-dimensional deformity, on an X-ray, viewed from the rear, the spine of an individual with scoliosis can resemble an "S" or a "?", rather than a straight line. Scoliosis is typically classified as either congenital, idiopathic, or secondary to a primary condition. Secondary scoliosis can be the result of a neuromuscular condition or syndromes such as Chiari malformation. Recent longitudinal studies reveal that the most common form of the condition, late-onset idiopathic scoliosis, is physiologically harmless and self-limiting even without treatment. The rarer forms of scoliosis pose risks of complications.
