Case Summary  |  Spina Biffida / Scoliosis


Condition Back General Spina Biffida/ Scoliosis
Case Description

I was born with spina biffida in 84. I had some surgeries in which half of my right back muscle was removed and wrapped around the exposed base of my spinal cord and then a skin graft over that. Because of the removed back muscle, I have a severe case of scoliosis. I'm in alot of pain everyday, but there isn't much I can do.
