Internet Enduring Material Sponsored by Stanford University School of Medicine and Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital. Presented by Department of Orthopaedic Surgery at Stanford University School of Medicine.

Scoliosis is a common spine condition diagnosed in children. Most cases of scoliosis are mild; however, it can progress as children grow. Early diagnosis is critical so that the condition can be managed before a growth spurt occurs in order to prevent worsening of the curve. This recorded lecture will discuss the prognosis of this condition and best practices for screening, early diagnosis, and management of pediatric scoliosis.
