Spine & Spinal Cord
Families seeking specialty spine and spinal cord care for children come to Shriners Children’s.
Our healthcare system offers a full spectrum of pediatric spine and spinal cord care and services. These range from non-surgical serial casting for infantile scoliosis to tendon and nerve transfers that can bring back function and sensation to children with spinal cord injuries.
