Scoliosis

JAAPA, 2023
AbstractScoliosis is a three-dimensional spinal deformity that can occur at any age. It may be idiopathic or secondary in children, idiopathic and degenerative in adults. Management of patients with scoliosis is multidisciplinary, involving rheumatologists, radiologists, orthopaedic surgeons, and prosthetists. Imaging plays a central role in diagnosis,

Epidemiology of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis

open access: yesJournal of Children's Orthopaedics, 2013
Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis is a common disease with an overall prevalence of 0.47–5.2 % in the current literature. The female to male ratio ranges from 1.5:1 to 3:1 and increases substantially with increasing age.

The spine journal, 2020
BACKGROUND CONTEXT Studies have shown that adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) prevalence varies between 0.35% and 5.2% and it is generally accepted as an average of 2%-3% in children under age 16.

Scoliosis

Neuroimaging Clinics of North America, 2007
Scoliosis is a structural lateral curvature of the spine with a rotatory component. Imaging in scoliosis is important. Most cases of scoliosis are idiopathic, and imaging is used routinely in monitoring the changes of the deformity that take place during growth.

Anterior Spinal Growth Tethering for Skeletally Immature Patients with Scoliosis: A Retrospective Look Two to Four Years Postoperatively

Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery. American volume, 2018

Scoliosis Correction Objectives in Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis

Journal of Pediatric Orthopaedics, 2007
A recent study revealed large variability among a group of 32 spine surgeons in the preoperative instrumentation strategies for the same 5 adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) patients. The surgical plans were determined to be surgeon and curve-type dependent.

Screening for scoliosis

Acta Orthopaedica Scandinavica, 1988
We compared two groups of consecutive patients presenting to a scoliosis center: viz., 214 children from 1974 to 1978 and 100 children from 1984 to 1986. The number of curves detected by school screening increased from 10 percent to 33 percent, and the size of the curves at presentation decreased from 49 to 33 degrees.

The Natural History of Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis

Journal of pediatric orthopedics, 2019
Introduction: Adolescent idiopathic Scoliosis (AIS) affects 2% to 3% of the population of which only 0.3% to 0.5% of affected patients will have a curvature of >20 degrees, the curve magnitude at which treatment is generally recommended.
