Rotatory Dislocation of the Spine in Dystrophic Kyphoscoliosis Secondary to Neurofibromatosis Type 1
Aim of the study: Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF-1) is associated with the development of scoliosis or kyphoscoliosis. The deformity is rapidly progressive in the presence of dystrophic changes producing bone erosion. Vertebral subluxation or dislocation can occur in children with highly dystrophic ky...
