Guest guest Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 I think it's about adolescent scoliosis - which is the most frequent. Infantile scoliosis is about 1% of all scoliosis cases. Adolescent scoliosis cannot be treated by ET.But I agree that there could be mentioned that earlier case (juvenile scoliosis) can be treated by Mehta casting (if they are progressive benign). MP From: "heather@..." <heather@...> infantile scoliosis treatment Sent: Tuesday, May 22, 2012 11:26 PM Subject: no mention of ET Mehta casting (again) [2 Attachments] This article was forwarded to me by the Shriners FB page, then a colleague. Its the same old stuff....Its just frustrating that ET w/ Mehta casting is not even mentioned as an option. If the words progressive infantile scoliosis are mentioned, then early Treatment should be too. My 2 cents... HRH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
