Comparison of somatosensory evoked potentials between adolescent idiopathic scoliosis and congenital scoliosis without neural axis abnormalities

Comparison of somatosensory evoked potentials between adolescent idiopathic scoliosis and congenital scoliosis without neural axis abnormalities . Zhijun Chen, Yong Qiu, Weiwei Ma, Bangping Qian, Zezhang Zhu; The Spine Journal, Available online 5 October 2013. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.spinee.2013.07.465.

Much evidence in recent years has shown neurologic dysfunction to be regarded as an ultimate cause for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) and. In growing children, diseases that alter posterior column function (eg, Chiari I malformation, syringomyelia, and Friedreich ataxia) are consistently associated with an idiopathic (rather than a neuromuscular) curve pattern.
