Progress in the Research of the Spinal Deformity Related to Marfan Syndrome
Marfan syndrome(MFS) is an autosomal dominant systemic connective tissue disease. The incidence rate of MFS is about 2-3 per 10 000. Main cause of MFS is FBN1 gene mutation. About 2/3 of MFS patients have spinal deformities, showing symptoms of scoliosis,

Biomechanics of spinal deformity
The correction of spinal deformity may be achieved by a variety of methods, each of which has advantages and disadvantages. The goals of spinal deformity surgery include reasonable correction of the curvature, prevention of further deformation, improvement of sagittal and coronal balance, optimization of cosmetic issues, and restoration/preservation of

SPINAL DEFORMITIES IN NEUROFIBROMATOSIS [PDF]
1. Neurofibromatosis is a disease involving both neuro-ectodermal tissues and mesodermal elements. In the past it has usually been assumed that the mesodermal abnormalities were secondary to the neuro-ectodermal ones. For example, skeletal deformities were considered to be caused by local neurofibromata. 2. It is becoming increasingly recognised that
