SPINAL DEFORMITY<\/h1>\n

Scoliosis and deformity surgery is typically performed by spinal surgeons who have undertaken further advanced training. Dr Yang has completed a Fellowship in complex Spine Surgery in Royal North Shore Hospital, North Shore Private Hospital and Sydney Adventist Hospital in Sydney.<\/p>\n

Spinal deformity occurs most commonly as a result of degenerative disease. The condition may be so debilitating that patients could lose their motor function and quality of life. Patients may be bent forward and find it very difficult to stand upright (kyphosis) or have a twisted spine (scoliosis)<\/p>\n

Spinal deformity if a complex problem and often requires additional X-rays and scans for full assessment. Surgery can help with deformity correction, relief of sciatic pain and sometimes back pain, however surgical intervention needs to be carefully considered as it is often a major procedure.<\/p>\n
