CURRENT TREATMENT APPROACHES OF SPINE DEFORMITY ASSOCIATED WITH INTRASPINAL PATHOLOGIES
Journal Title: Journal of Turkish Spinal Surgery - Year 2013, Vol 24, Issue 4
Abstract
Pathologies of the spinal cord may be associated with scoliosis. When the spine deformity is corrected, neurological deficits due to spinal cord tension may develop. For this reason, surgical procedures may be required for intraspinal pathology. In this study, we evaluate the treatment approaches for spinal deformities with a high incidence of spinal abnormalities.
