Scoliosis is a spine disorder that causes an abnormal curve of the spine, or backbone. The spine has normal curves when looking from the side, but it should appear straight when looking from the front and Kyphosis is a curve seen from the side in which the spine is bent forward. There is a normal kyphosis in the middle (thoracic) spine. Lordosis is a curve seen from the side in which the spine is bent backward. There is a normal lordosis in the upper (cervical) spine and the lower (lumbar) spine. People with scoliosis develop additional curves to either side, and the bones of the spine twist on each other, forming a C or S shape in the spine.
If the curve stays below 40 degrees until the person is finished growing, it is not likely to get worse later in life. However, if the curve is greater than 40 degrees, it is likely to continue to get worse by 1-2 degrees each year for the rest of the person's life. If this is not prevented, the person could eventually be at risk for heart or lung problems. The goals of surgery for scoliosis or scoliosis correction surgery in India are correcting and stabilizing the curve, reducing pain, and restoring a more normal curve and appearance to the spinal column.
Healthcare Costs in India are already lower as compared to other western countries. There are various techniques used for scoliosis correction surgery in India. One type of surgery for scoliosis involves posterior spinal fusion with instrumentation and bone grafting and Another surgery option for scoliosis correction in India is an anterior approach The costs may be almost 30-40 percent down during these special offers. Cost for Scoliosis Correction Surgery in India is approx USD 6500 - 12000. Most cases of scoliosis are mild, but some children develop spine deformities that continue to get more severe as they grow and so does the charges of the surgery.
