Over the recent years the medical world have been testing new technologies for detecting scoliosis through DNA. They have also been testing new rod systems and trying to find a link between scoliosis and genes. They think CHD7 could be the gene which carries scoliosis, although this has not been confirmed
There are many places where one could find information on surgeries for scoliosis. The best places where one could find information about scoliosis surgeries would be places like WebMD.
That is called a scoliosis. You can remember the 'S' shaped spine of Scoliosis.
Scoliosis is really an opinion on if it is rare or common. I can answer that 2-3% of people HAVE curves of over 20*, i have scoliosis...so i find it pretty common that 2-3 percent have it...but i think that more people should know what it is.
scoliosis can not be prevented
Conventional orthopedic treatment for scoliosis consists of observation only for spinal curves less than 25*, rigid bracing for curves 25-40*, and multiple level spinal fusion surgery for curves 40* or more. Most patients and parents find this treatment model unappealing and thus new efforts to find a scoliosis exercise based approach have been developed in recent years like the Early Stage Scoliosis Intervention program for mild scoliosis or the Scoliosis BootCamp program for moderate to severe scoliosis.
