Scoliosis must be differentiated from syringomyelia, spina bifida, arnold-chiari malformation (tethered spinal cord) and leg length discrepancy.
Differentiating Scoliosis from other Diseases
- Scoliosis must be differentiated from other diseases that causes spinal deformity, neurologic abnormalities and gait abnormalities, such as syringomyelia, spina bifida, arnold-chiari malformation and leg length discrepancy.[1][2]
