Diagnostic yield and clinical impact of exome sequencing in early-onset scoliosis (EOS).

  • Post category:NEWS

Early-onset scoliosis (EOS), defined by an onset age of scoliosis less than 10 years, conveys significant health risk to affected children. Identification of the molecular etiology underlying EOS patients could provide valuable information for both clinical management and prenatal screening. In this study, we consecutively recruited a cohort of 447 Chinese patients and another cohort of 13 EOS patients from the United States to test the diagnostic yield and clinical impact of ES.
