Beskrivning

Non-idiopathic early onset scoliosis represents a true challenge to the physician due to the significance of the ongoing growth of the spine, the risk of curve progression, and the risk of pulmonary insufficiency. The main causes of non-idiopathic early onset scoliosis are briefly described in the second part of the book.
