Spine deformities in children
The main aim of this center is early detection of spinal column deformities in children and its early conservative treatment. The treatment includes corrective exercises as well as potential need for wearing corrective corsets in order to avoid surgical treatment.
How is this procedure carried out?
The center is equipped with the latest equipment for diagnosing and treating the following spinal column disorders:
- spinal deformities such as: idopatic scoliosis,congenital scoliosis and neuromuscular scoliosis where surgical indication has been established.
- spinal column injuries (unstable fractures with or without neurological deficit which require reposition and stabilization of the fracture segment ).
- spinal column tumors (which can be primary or metastases).
- In case additional analyses are necessary for determining the right therapy,a team of our experts is ready to solve even the most complex cases in spinal surgery.
