What Is Scoliosis?
Scoliosis is defined as a sideways curvature of the spine. When a healthy spine is viewed from the back, it appears to be straight. However, patients with scoliosis have curves that look like a “C” (one curve) or an “S” (two curves) when viewed on an X-ray.

What solutions are available?
Depending on the severity of the scoliosis, the patient may be prescribed a bracing or casting option. If surgical treatment is needed, Globus offers a variety of innovative solutions for pediatric scoliosis correction.
Patients should always speak with their healthcare provider to determine which treatment plan is appropriate for them.
