Presentation
Congenital spinal deformity that is exaggerated with trauma in childhood.
Patient Data







The left scoliotic curve is angular, and the kyphosis is extreme (gibbus deformity).
Bone detail is characteristically confused by deformity. Several formations and segmentation failures with old collapse and compression fractures are noted at T11-L1 levels.
Severe rotational deformity also is seen.
The spinal canal is narrowed at the angle of the deformity.

The left scoliotic curve is angular, and the kyphosis is extreme (gibbus deformity). Several formations and segmentation failures with old collapse and compression fractures are noted at T11-L1 levels causing severe rotational deformity.
Case Discussion
Severe left ward rotoscoliosis and gibbus deformity in a patient with a history of congenital spinal deformity exaggerated with secondary trauma.
