Pathogenesis of Scoliosis

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1976
Scoliosis often occurs in otherwise normal individuals or it may be associated with many widely differing diseases. The curve patterns are fairly uniform and the vertebrae always rotate in the frontal and horizontal planes producing convex side rotation with little displacement of the spinuous processes. Many small curves do not increase.

Scoliosis in Ducks

Zentralblatt für Veterinärmedizin Reihe A, 2010
Summary Scoliosis is a genetic defect occurring in the white Pekin duck. It results from an abnormal growth of individual vertebrae. Curvature of the spine is not obvious at the time of hatching, but histological evidence of portions of the notochord is present and this is associated with an abnormal growth of the vertebrae. Scoliosis may be grossly

Thoracotomy and Scoliosis

Spine, 1991
The incidence of thoracic scoliosis after completion of growth was studied in a group of patients operated on in childhood with a lateral thoracotomy for esophageal atresia and cardiac and pulmonary disorders. Twenty of 61 patients had a thoracic scoliosis exceeding 10 degrees.

Scoliosis in the Elderly

The Journal of Bone & Joint Surgery, 1969
1. The incidence of scoliosis in persons over fifty years of age is 6 per cent.2. In patients over fifty years, with osteoporosis or osteomalacia, the incidence is six times greater (osteoporosis 36 per cent; osteomalacia 38 per cent).3. Scoliosis is believed to arise in the elderly.

A painful scoliosis

The British Journal of Radiology, 1986
A 14-year-old girl presented with a 2-year history of continuous pain in the lumbar region. The pain was worse at night, exacerbated by movement and partially relieved by analgesics. On initial examination she had a thoraco-lumbar scoliosis with severe restriction of all movements of the lumbar spine. Plain radiography of the spine (Fig.

A Child with Scoliosis

AJN, American Journal of Nursing, 1953
N 1947, Kay had a severe attack of poliomyelitis which left her with complete paralysis of the opponens muscle in her left hand and a slight curvature of the spine. The scoliosis, however, has progressed steadily and although her back does not cause discomfort most of the time, it does ache at the end of the day. I was on the children's orthopedic ward

TRANSVERSECTOMY FOR SCOLIOSIS

The Journal of Bone & Joint Surgery, 1951
This operation was conceived from observations made on the physiological response of the spine following surgical trauma in thoracoplasties. The above case is reported to demonstrate the efficacy of a very simple operative Procedure to assist in the correction of primary thoracic scoliosis.

PROPHYLAXIS OF SCOLIOSIS

The Journal of Bone & Joint Surgery, 1952
1. Gravity acting upon a growing spine which is not straight can produce structural scoliosis due to pressure-arrest of epiphyseal growth. 2. The early recognition and treatment of functional curvatures is therefore of primary importance in the prophylaxis of structural scoliosis. 3.
