Idiopathic and congenital scoliosis in twins.

L M McKinley, K D Leatherman.   

Abstract

This report contains a case presentation of monozygotic twins who had concordant right thoracic scoliosis of differing severities. One twin also had an associated congenital left lumbar scoliosis and urologic abnormalities. This report would suggest that the genetic basis of scoliosis may occur at multiple gene loci.
