What are the Common Types of Congenital Spinal Deformities?
1. Scoliosis: This is a lateral curvature of the spine that can be congenital, idiopathic, or neuromuscular. Congenital scoliosis is caused by abnormally formed vertebrae. 2. Kyphosis: This condition is characterized by an excessive outward curvature of the spine, leading to a hunchback posture. 3. Lordosis: An excessive inward curvature of the lower back. 4. Spina Bifida: A neural tube defect where the spine and spinal cord don't form properly, leading to varying degrees of disability.
