Spotlight on Scoliosis

Published on in CHOP News

Life throws many curve balls, but for 10-year-old Annie Dever, those curves could be measured at specific points: 58 and 40 degrees. Those numbers reflect the initial severity of her scoliosis, a condition she was diagnosed with four years ago. Recently, a 6ABC Healthy Kids segment profiled Annie and her visit with Jack Flynn, MD, Chief of the Division of Orthopaedics.
