Thoracolumbar Biomechanical Analysis of Lenke Type 1 Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis Across Roussouly Classifications. [PDF]

JOR Spine
Finite element models of Lenke type 1 adolescent idiopathic scoliosis were morphed into Roussouly sagittal types 1–4 and subjected to pure moment loading. The figure illustrates how sagittal morphology modulates thoracolumbar biomechanics, with Roussouly types 3–4 showing reduced range of motion and more favorable disc loading than types 1–2.

Effect of Lowest Instrumented Vertebra on Trunk Mobility in Patients With Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis Undergoing a Posterior Spinal Fusion [PDF]

, 2014
Study Design Prospective. Objectives The goal of this study was to evaluate the effect of posterior spinal fusion surgery terminating at different lowest instrumented vertebrae (LIV) on trunk mobility in individuals with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (

Altered sensory-weighting mechanisms is observed in adolescents with idiopathic scoliosis

BMC Neuroscience, 2006
Background Scoliosis is the most common type of spinal deformity. In North American children, adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) makes up about 90% of all cases of scoliosis.

The Vestibular-Evoked Postural Response of Adolescents with Idiopathic Scoliosis Is Altered. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis is a multifactorial disorder including neurological factors. A dysfunction of the sensorimotor networks processing vestibular information could be related to spine deformation.

Etiology of Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis: A Literature Review

Asian Spine Journal, 2019
Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) is the peripubertal development of spinal curvature of a minimum of 10°. AIS is thought to be attributable to genetic factors, nutrition, early exposure to toxins, and hormonal dysregulation.

TREATMENT OF IDIOPATHIC SCOLIOSIS BY HARRINGTON INSTRUMENTATION

Journal of Nepal Medical Association, 2003
An adolescent idiopathic right-sided thoracolumbar scoliosis has been corrected surgically with Harrington distraction and compression instrumentation with posterior fusion for the first time in Nepal. Key Words: Idiopathic scoliosis, Harrington system.

Predicting growth and curve progression in the individual patient with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis: design of a prospective longitudinal cohort study

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2010
Background Scoliosis is present in 3-5% of the children in the adolescent age group, with a higher incidence in females. Treatment of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis is mainly dependent on the progression of the scoliotic curve.

Quality of Life in Adolescent’s Idiopathic Scoliosis before and after Physical Therapy: A Preliminary Study [PDF]

Sport Mont, 2018
Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis (AIS) accounts for 80% of all types of diagnosed scoliosis, occurring in 2%-3% of growing age population. This disorder is quite complicated and physical therapy is important factor in the treatment.
