Idiopathic scoliosis: how much of a genetic disorder? Report of five pairs of monozygotic twins.

Developmental neurorehabilitation - 1 Jan 2000

Weiss Hans-Rudolf

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: The role of genetic factors in the development of Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis (AIS) has been well documented; however, reports of the specific mode of genetic inheritance are inconclusive. These facts, combined with the phenotypic variability of this disorder, suggest that the genetic expression of idiopathic scoliosis may be dependent on multiple factors and genetic interactions. However, it seems...
