Scoliosis is a lateral and rotary deformity of the spine that is often found in children.
Is it true that scoliosis is a lateral and rotary deformity of the spine that is often found in children?
Yes. Scoliosis is widely recognized in the medical literature as a lateral and rotational deformity of the spine that frequently presents during childhood and adolescence.
Verdict: SUPPORTED · 8 sources for, 0 against · Last checked
The claim states that scoliosis is a lateral and rotary deformity of the spine often found in children. All retrieved papers consistently characterize scoliosis, specifically adolescent and early-onset idiopathic scoliosis, as a three-dimensional spinal deformity (which encompasses lateral curvature and axial rotation/rotary components) occurring in children and adolescents. Therefore, the evidence strongly supports the claim.
