Escoliose e Paralisia Cerebral

Scoliosis and Cerebral Palsy Scoliosis affecting patients with cerebral palsy is called neuromuscular scoliosis. It is quite different from adolescent idiopathic scoliosis. This is because it occurs due to a communication failure between neurons and muscles. As a result, the muscles become unable to support the trunk. The spine deforms and continues to worsen even after the child reaches skeletal maturity. There are varying degrees of severity of cerebral palsy; milder degrees rarely cause scoliosis, while more severe degrees have a very high chance of causing scoliosis and also of requiring surgery. Unfortunately, it is the most vulnerable patients who most often require surgery. The surgery tends to be extensive, but it is still the best option for young people who need it.
