Kyphoscoliosis – Market Outlook, Epidemiology, Competitive Landscape, and Market Forecast Report – 2023 To 2033
Kyphoscoliosis is a deviation from the spine's typical curvature in the sagittal and coronal planes, which may involve a rotation of the spinal axis. A lateral deviation in the coronal plane of greater than 10 degrees, as determined by the Cobb angle, is considered adult scoliosis. Postural variation can cause lateral deviations less than 10 degrees. "kyphosis" and "lordosis" describe how the spine curves in the sagittal plane. When looking at the spine laterally, the cervical and lumbar spines exhibit a normal degree of lordosis, or posterior curvature, ranging from 35 to 80 degrees; in contrast, the thoracic spine naturally exhibits a degree of kyphosis, or forward curvature, often between 30 and 50 degrees. The multifactorial etiology of kyphoscoliosis varies according to the patient's demographics. Causes can be divided into three categories: congenital, secondary, and idiopathic. Most cases are due to idiopathic reasons, which are still complex and
