Schooliosis, a pun on "school" and "scoliosis", is a term for a type of medical misdiagnosis. The word was coined by Petr Skrabanek and James McCormick. The authors asserted that there is some degree of overdiagnosis of scoliosis in school, which causes ethical, social, and economic damage to the welfare of children. Such overdiagnosis is called "schooliosis" by some academics. Schooliosis is a type of disease mongering. The term has also been used in a non-medical sense for students' inability to imagine themselves as graduates.

| - La escuoliosis es un sincretismo lingüístico entre las palabras "escuela" y "escoliosis" (en inglés "schooliosis"= "school" + "scoliosis") ideado y descrito por Petr Skrabanek y . Este término se incluye dentro del grupo de promoción de enfermedades. Los autores afirman que existe un cierto grado de sobrediagnóstico de escoliosis en la escuela, el cual origina daños en el bienestar de la niñez, con implicaciones éticas, sociales y económicas. Tras una actividad preventiva en el colegio o instituto, se origina un diagnóstico incorrecto de escoliosis que desencadena una serie de intervenciones médicas innecesarias sobre el adolescente. Son cascadas diagnósticas y terapéuticas en las que participan varios especialistas, las cuales pueden finalizar con daño iatrogénico sobre un niño sano con espalda normal. Los riesgos son sobreexposición innecesaria a rayos X (por reiteradas radiografías diagnósticas), técnicas de rehabilitación con efectos secundarios (tracciones), tratamientos ortopédicos estigmatizantes (corsés dorsolumbares) y gastos en tiempo, desplazamientos, etc. La familia del niño vive con angustia la información recibida en el reconocimiento escolar, y le obliga a buscar la confirmación diagnóstica y los tratamientos que le curen. Pero este proceso puede traer más complicaciones que ventajas, limitando el desarrollo físico y psíquico del menor, al estar condicionado por la multitud de intervenciones sanitarias a las que es sometido.

Such overdiagnosis is called "schooliosis" by some academics. Schooliosis is a type of disease mongering. Preventive medical screening in school or college may lead to an incorrect diagnosis of scoliosis that triggers a series of unnecessary medical interventions on adolescents. There can be diagnostic and therapeutic cascades involving several specialists, which can end with iatrogenic damage to a healthy child with a normal back. The risks are unnecessary overexposure to X-rays (repeated diagnostic X-rays), rehabilitation techniques with side effects (traction), stigmatizing orthopaedic treatment (braces for back injury) and costs in time, travel, etc. The term has also been used in a non-medical sense for students' inability to imagine themselves as graduates.
