Case Study 183: Juvenile Idiopathic Scoliosis

In this video, we explore a powerful case of juvenile idiopathic scoliosis (JIS)—a rare but serious form of scoliosis diagnosed between ages 4–10. Our patient, an 8-year-old girl, presented with a rapidly progressing 108° spinal curve.

✨ What makes JIS different?
Unlike adolescent scoliosis, JIS can be more aggressive and often requires early intervention to prevent lung and spinal cord complications. Treatment in this case included halo gravity traction followed by spinal fusion surgery—a life-changing journey of strength and resilience.

🧠 This is more than just a curve. It’s a condition that can affect a child’s growth, breathing, and quality of life. Early detection = better outcomes.

🎗️June is Scoliosis Awareness Month—let’s honor the strength of these young warriors.
