ABSTRACT Objective: To evaluate the prevalence of hidden neuraxial pathology (NAP) revealed in idiopathic scoliosis (IS) in neurologically normal patients. Methods: We selected 401 patients with IS who visited our clinic. We identified patterns of NAP and its frequency. In addition to the main part of ...
