Case study 130 - Adult Degenerative Scoliosis
Degenerative scoliosis is caused by the degeneration of the facet joints and intervertebral discs, which are the moving parts of the spine. This degeneration can occur slowly over time as a person ages, and it's most common in people over 65 years of age. It often occurs in the lower back, or lumbar spine, which is most susceptible to changes due to aging. Degenerative scoliosis can also be accompanied by spinal stenosis, which is a narrowing of the spinal canal that can pinch the spinal nerves.
