Neuromuscular Scoliosis and Neural Element Lesions

Disruption of integrity of neural elements through a variety of congenital, developmental and neoplastic conditions can lead to a unique disruption of the natural balance of the spinal column. Correct identification of the cause and the underlying pathology is helpful in managing the lesion. In presence of spinal cord lesions, timing of surgical treatment these conditions as opposed to correction of the spinal deformity remains an unanswered question and is debated in this program by University of Washington doctor Marcelo Vilela of Harborview and Dr. Mohammad Diab from University of California -- San Francisco.
