Scoliosis and Deformity. What is Scoliosis. Scoliosis is a medical condition in which a personâs spine is curved from side to side. Although it is a complex three-dimensional deformity, on an X-ray, viewed from the rear, the spine of an individual with scoliosis may look more like an âSâ or a âCâ, rather than a straight line.
