Scoliosis Surgery in Mumbai & India by Dr. Vishal Kundnani
What is Scoliosis?
Scoliosis is a spinal deformity characterized by an abnormal curvature of the spine, causing it to curve sideways in a 'C' or 'S' shape. This condition can occur in any part of the spine but is most commonly seen in the thoracic (upper) or lumbar (lower) regions. The curvature often leads to visible signs such as a noticeable hump in the back, uneven shoulders, or hips, and in more severe cases, respiratory difficulties. Scoliosis is especially common in children and adolescents, though it can also develop in adults as a result of aging or degenerative conditions. The severity of scoliosis varies from mild to severe, and in many cases, it progresses over time, worsening the deformity and impacting overall health. Early diagnosis and intervention are crucial to managing the condition effectively. Surgical intervention, such as spinal fusion or minimally invasive procedures, is essential to correct spinal alignment, alleviate pain, and prevent further complications, ensuring improved posture and quality of life for patients.

Scoliosis Conditions Treated
- Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis (AIS) : This is the most common type of scoliosis, typically developing in children or teenagers without a known cause. Early detection and monitoring are essential to ensure the curvature does not worsen as the child grows.
- Congenital Scoliosis : This form of scoliosis is present at birth and occurs due to abnormal spinal development in the womb. It may require early surgical intervention to prevent severe spinal deformities and ensure proper growth and development.
- Adult Degenerative Scoliosis : Often seen in older adults, this type of scoliosis results from the degeneration of spinal discs and joints due to aging. It can lead to back pain, nerve compression, and loss of mobility, requiring personalized treatment and management strategies.
- Neuromuscular Scoliosis : Caused by neurological or muscular conditions such as cerebral palsy or muscular dystrophy, this type of scoliosis leads to progressive spinal curvature due to imbalanced muscle control. Treatment often includes bracing or surgery to manage the condition and improve function.
- Revision Scoliosis Surgeries : Revision surgeries are performed for patients who have previously undergone scoliosis surgery but may still experience complications such as curvature recurrence or hardware failure. These surgeries aim to correct and stabilize the spine for long-term relief and improved quality of life.
