Scheuermann's disease is a kyphotic deformity of the spine that develops in early adolescence. This condition has been reported to occur in 0.4% to 8% of the general population, with an equal distribution between sexes. Diagnosis of Scheuermann's disease is suggested on clinical examination; however, parents of children affected often confuse it with ...

Congenital kyphosis is a rare spinal deformity, and many physicians are unfamiliar with its proper treatment. Following a case report, this article presents a brief synopsis of the literature. We present the case history of a 45-year-old woman with a congenital kyphosis of 140 degrees who has been followed at our institution for 39 years.

Cervicothoracic kyphotic deformity may inhibit horizontal gaze function, impede activities of daily living, and induce disabling pain. Eventually, some patients develop a chin-on-chest deformity that limits their ability to eat and drink; in the end stage, a few patients also may have difficulty breathing.

Atlantoaxial kyphosis (AAK) is a rare sagittal deformity of the occiptoatlantoaxial junction. It is defined as a subgroup of anterior translatory atlantoaxial instability. AAK is a symptom of several ligamentours or bony disorders of the craniocervical junction; however, rheumatoid arthritis and trauma are the most common causes for AAK.
