3 Types of Idiopathic ScoliosisInfantile idiopathic scoliosis: develops from birth to 3 years old.Juvenile idiopathic scoliosis: develops from 4 to 9 years old.Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis: develops from 10 to 18 years old.
Idiopathic scoliosis is one of three different types of scoliosis that cause the spine to develop an abnormal curve. “Idiopathic” means there is no definite cause. Idiopathic scoliosis is the most common type of scoliosis. It tends to run in families and affects girls eight times as often as it affects boys.

Most scoliosis cases—both in children and adults—are idiopathic. That means there is no known cause. Adult idiopathic scoliosis is a continuation of the disease from childhood. The scoliosis may have started during your teenage years and gone unnoticed, not progressing until you reached adulthood.
Scoliosis is an abnormal curvature of the spine (backbone). There is a natural, forward-and-backward curve to the spine. With scoliosis, the spine rotates and develops a side-to-side curve. Curves may be as mild as 10 degrees, or as severe as 100 degrees or more.
Dextroscoliosis is a type of scoliosis. Scoliosis is a deformity of the spine that results in a sideways curve of the spinal column. If the spine curves to the right, the condition is known as dextroscoliosis. If the spine curves to the left, the condition is called levoscoliosis.
Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis probably results from a combination of genetic and environmental factors. Studies suggest that the abnormal spinal curvature may be related to hormonal problems, abnormal bone or muscle growth, nervous system abnormalities, or other factors that have not been identified.
Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis is the most common type of scoliosis and is usually diagnosed during puberty. Congenital scoliosis results from embryological malformation of one or more vertebrae and may occur in any location of the spine.
This year, two CPT radiology codes that are commonly used by chiropractors were eliminated and replaced by four new codes. The eliminated codes are 72010, radiological examination, spine, entire, survey study, anteroposterior (AP) and lateral, and 72069, radiological examination, spine, thoracolumbar, standing.
Scoliosis is a side-to-side curve in the spine. Degenerative scoliosis is a result of wear and tear on the discs and joints of the spine. It is the most common type of scoliosis in adults, and usually happens in the lumbar (lower) spine.
THORACOGENIC scoliosis is defined as a spinal curvaa. ture attributable to iatrogenic disease or operative. trauma to the thoracic cage. The disease mechaa. nism behind this phenomenon is not well understood.
Kyphoscoliosis describes an abnormal curvature of the spine in both a coronal and sagittal plane. It is a combination of kyphosis and scoliosis.

This is the official approximate match mapping between ICD9 and ICD10, as provided by the General Equivalency mapping crosswalk. This means that while there is no exact mapping between this ICD10 code M41.22 and a single ICD9 code, 737.30 is an approximate match for comparison and conversion purposes.
