Aim

This ICL on Early Onset Scoliosis is designed for the pediatric spine specialist. EOS can be a life-threatening condition and this ICL will provide the attendee with information on how to recognize and diagnose this condition. Particular attention will be paid to understanding the natural history of the condition as well as both the non-operative and operative treatment options. The decision making for these patients is particularly critical and a case-based discussion with a panel of experts will highlight the reason for such decision in a variety of cases.
