Congenital scoliosis due to congenital bony malformation - what does this mean

Congenital scoliosis due to congenital bony malformation is a condition caused by a deformity of the spine at birth. this deformity can cause the spine to twist and curve abnormally, leading to a sideways curvature of the spine. it is often caused by abnormalities in the vertebrae, ribs, or other bones in the spine.

What happens during the disease - congenital scoliosis due to congenital bony malformation

Congenital scoliosis due to congenital bony malformation is caused by an abnormality of the vertebrae or ribs that is present at birth. this can be the result of a genetic mutation, a teratogenic effect, or an abnormality of the neural crest cells during embryonic development. this can lead to an imbalance in the musculoskeletal system, resulting in a curved spine and a host of other issues, such as difficulty breathing, pain, and impaired mobility.

Congenital scoliosis due to congenital bony malformation - Prevention
