Scoliosis is defined as a lateral (side) curvature of the spine that may occur in children or adults; a related condition, kyphosis, is a (usually convex) curvature of the spine that causes hunchback and other degrees of spinal distress depending upon the degree of the curve and location on the spine.
There are many types of these disorders (e.g., lordosis), as well as both non-surgical and surgical treatment for the pain and other adverse effects of the conditions.
Scoliosis may cause back pain, abnormal gait, uneven hips and different leg lengths for adolescents, and even more severe symptoms when found in adults. More information about Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis, Degenerative Scoliosis, and Kyphosis may be found on their respective pages.
Scoliosis is defined as a lateral (side) curvature of the spine that may occur in children or adults. The Institute for Spine & Scoliosis continues our tradition of researching the latest techniques and improvements in spinal surgery, to develop new and less-invasive treatment options for scoliosis, especially for child and adolescent developing spines.
This represents the true benefit of our pioneering procedures and years of experience and expertise. Learn more about our unique Vertebral Body Stapling, Anterior Scoliosis Correction (ASC) and Posterior Spinal Fusion.
Scoliosis may cause back pain, abnormal gait, uneven hips and different leg lengths for adolescents, and even more severe symptoms when found in adults. More information about Scoliosis and Kyphosis, specifically Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis, Degenerative Scoliosis, and Kyphosis may be found on their respective pages.
Dr. Antonacci’s Anterior Scoliosis Correction ASC is a flexible approach used in correcting scoliosis. Using the techniques of ASC, patients will have muscle sparing surgery which helps maximize flexibility while straightening small, large, and even stiff curves in growing or mature patients.
