What Is Scoliosis?

Scoliosis is defined as an abnormal sideways curvature of the spine, most commonly appearing in the mid-back (thoracic spine) or lower back (lumbar spine). In adults, scoliosis may be caused by spinal degeneration or may be a progression of a condition that began in childhood. In more severe cases, scoliosis can lead to nerve compression, visible deformity, and even compromised lung or heart function.

Types of Scoliosis We Evaluate and Treat

• Idiopathic Scoliosis: Often begins in adolescence and may worsen over time if left untreated.
• Degenerative Scoliosis: Develops in adults due to arthritis, disc wear, or pre-existing spinal imbalances.
• Neuromuscular Scoliosis: Caused by neuromuscular conditions that affect spinal stability and alignment.

When to Consider Scoliosis Surgery

Surgery may be recommended when scoliosis causes:

• Chronic or worsening back, hip, or leg pain
• A visibly leaning posture or uneven shoulders/hips
• Progressive spinal curvature
• Breathing or walking difficulties
• Compression of spinal nerves

Our Approach to Scoliosis Care

While some patients may benefit from physical therapy or bracing—typically arranged through external providers—Atlantic Brain and Spine focuses on the surgical treatment of scoliosis. Dr. Ashayeri works closely with patients to assess spinal curvature, review imaging, and determine whether surgery such as spinal fusion or deformity correction is the most appropriate path forward.
