No earlier study had specifically examined early anaesthesia exposure and neurodevelopment in children with congenital scoliosis. Children with early-onset scoliosis frequently require multiple operations to prevent worsening spinal deformity. Children with congenital scoliosis needing repeated surgery may have elevated risk for abnormal central nervous system development. Congenital scoliosis accounts for about 10% of early-onset scoliosis cases.
