Continuous Hypodynamic Change of Cerebrospinal Fluid Flow as A Potential Factor Working for Experimental Scoliotic Formation

Scoliosis is often associated with syringomyelia (SM). As an important role in SM formation, the influence from abnormal cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) flow is still unclear to scoliosis. The aim of this ...
