Abstract
1. One hundred babies under the age of one year with untreated structural idiopathic scoliosis have been studied and the outcome assessed. 2. Ninety-two recovered spontaneously. Five developed progressive curves of bad prognosis and three developed secondary structural (double primary) scoliosis. 3. It is suggested that intrauterine moulding may cause the deformity.Keywords
