Congenital Scoliosis

Congenital scoliosis is a condition present at birth where the spine develops abnormally due to defective formation or segmentation of vertebrae during fetal development. This leads to an uneven spine that curves sideways and may cause back pain, imbalance, or other complications as the child grows. The severity varies, and it can sometimes be associated with other congenital anomalies. Treatment options depend on the degree of curvature and may include observation, bracing, or surgery to correct or control the spinal deformity and ensure proper growth and function.
