Hi all,
I was wondering if anyone knows if a compression frature can lead to Scoliosis and Kyphosis? My daughter had a compression fracture of T-12 and wore a back brace for 8 months. Prior to this she didn't had any back problems. After the back brace was taken off, her Kyphosis went from 42 to 70 degrees in less then a year. She is now scheduled for surgery.
Any input on this would be greatly appreciated. Other then this fracture and bracing I don't have a clue what could have caused this.
Thanks,
Melanie
