Deformity (Scoliosis & Kyphosis) Correction

Deformities of the spine, such as scoliosis and kyphosis, can have a significant impact on a person's quality of life, affecting not only physical health but also emotional well-being. Deformity correction surgeries are advanced interventions designed to address these spinal conditions, aiming to restore proper alignment, alleviate pain, and improve overall function. 

Common Conditions Treated By Deformity Correction Department

  • Scoliosis: A sideways curvature of the spine that occurs most often during the growth spurt just before puberty.
  • Kyphosis: An exaggerated, forward rounding of the back. It can occur at any age but is most common in older women.
  • Spinal Deformities: Including conditions like lordosis or hypokyphosis, where there's an excessive straightening of the spine.

  • Spinal Deformity Surgery: This includes procedures like spinal fusion, osteotomies (bone cuts to correct alignment), and vertebral column resection for conditions like scoliosis, kyphosis, and lordosis. These surgeries aim to straighten and stabilize the spine.
  • Growth Modulation Preserve spinal growth and correct alignment at the same time. Suitable for children with sufficient growth remaining.
  • Vertebral Body Tethering: Preserve spinal growth and correct alignment at the same time. Suitable for children with sufficient growth remaining.
