What is Scoliosis? Scoliosis is an abnormal curvature of the spine that mostly affects children of different ages. 80% of scoliosis cases have unknown causes, therefore, the term ‘idiopathic’. Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis (AIS) usually develops during the age when the bones are growing the fastest, i.e. ages 9 to 14 years old. On the other hand, congenital scoliosis is often detected earlier. This condition is often due to congenital diseases, such as neuro-muscular disorders or Marfan’s Syndrome. In the older population, bone degeneration is the main cause of degenerative scoliosis.
