    Sweetness,
    If you consider that Liz T is 74 yrs. old, there was no surgery available in the 1930's - 1940's for scoli. The only thing that could have been done is 1) brace or 2) fuse her spine in the position it was in without correction.

      Liz Taylor

      In addition to suffering from multiple health problems over the years, Liz Taylor has heart failure. She has congenital scoliosis which only worsened as a result of osteoporosis. Given her frail health, no doctor in his right mind would advise surgery of this magnitude. That would surely be the end of Ms. Taylor.

        considering surgery in the near future as the curvature is getting progressively worse and for pain management.
