Spinal deformities in children are conditions where the spine develops an abnormal curve or shape. These deformities can affect a child’s posture, growth, mobility, and, in severe cases, lung or heart function. Early identification and treatment are essential to ensure a healthy, active future for the child.
Dr. Manjush Ramesh Halbhavi specializes in the evaluation and management of spinal deformities in children, using both conservative and surgical approaches tailored to the child’s age and condition severity.
A side-to-side curvature of the spine, often noticed during growth spurts. It may be:
Idiopathic (most common, especially in adolescents)
Congenital (present from birth)
Neuromuscular (associated with conditions like cerebral palsy or muscular dystrophy)
An excessive outward curvature of the upper spine (hunchback appearance). It can be postural or caused by structural issues like Scheuermann’s disease.
An exaggerated inward curve of the lower back (swayback), which may be seen in children with muscle imbalances or neurological disorders.
Conditions like hemivertebrae or vertebral fusion that develop in the womb and may lead to complex deformities if untreated.
Regular spine checks during school-age years can help detect early deformities.
The treatment depends on the type, severity, and progression of the deformity, along with the child’s age and growth potential.
