Brief Answer:
Congenital internal illness. Block vertebra

Detailed Answer:
Hi there.

Thanks for the query.

This is a congenital internal illness involving the vertebra and its anomalies.

The deformity is due to the abnormal shape and development of a few of the vertebrae from Dr to D12 causing growth disturbance and formation of spine deformity.

I hope I have answered your query.

I will be available to answer your follow up queries.
