ORTHOPEDIC APPROACH IN SMA DISEASE

Orthopedic problems may affect the quality of life in individuals with SMA. However, it is possible to manage these problems with early diagnosis, regular monitoring and correct treatment approaches.

Treatment methods that support the musculoskeletal system can increase the mobility of individuals and improve their general health. Orthopedic follow-up, which is one of the multidisciplinary follow-up areas, plays a major role in increasing the living standards of individuals with SMA.
