<\/div>[vc_column_text]This is a very broad category, a bit of a catch-all in fact.\u00a0 When scoliosis is the result of some other syndrome, then it can be said to be a \u201csyndromic scoliosis\u201d.<\/p>\n

There are a number of different named \u201csyndromes\u201d which have, as one potential manifestation, scoliosis.\u00a0 Neurofibromatosis which is a genetic disorder that causes tumors to form on nerve tissue, is one example.\u00a0 Other examples in this category include such syndromes as osteochondrodystrophy (dwarfism), Marfan Syndrome, Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, osteogenesis imperfecta, and Down\u2019s syndrome (trisomy 21).\u00a0 There is nothing that connects this disparate group of syndromes other than the fact that they all can cause scoliosis.<\/p>\n
