Abstract

This study evaluates postnatal spinal development and growth patterns in children born to mothers who experienced COVID-19 infection during pregnancy. The review focuses on potential morphological and functional changes in early childhood, emphasizing anthropometric indicators that reflect vertebral growth. Current literature is analyzed to determine possible associations between prenatal SARS-CoV-2 exposure and musculoskeletal development outcomes.
