Comparison of trunk and spine deformity in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis
BACKGROUND Cobb measurement of standing radiographs is the standard for clinical assessment of coronal spinal deformity. Angle of trunk inclination (ATI) is an accepted clinical measurement of trunk asymmetry, and has variable reported correlations with Cobb angles. Transverse plane spine deformity is most accurately measured using axial computed tomography. Aaro and Dahlbourn's technique for q...
متن کاملAssessment of Coronal Radiographic Parameters of the Spine in the Treatment of Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis
Background: To determine the most important preoperative factors that affect postoperative coronal parameters of scoliotic curves. Methods: All Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis (AIS) patients included in the study were classified according to Lenke and King Classification. The fusion levels were selected according to the rigidity of the existing curves (correction less than 50%), tilt...
متن کاملThe Biomechanics of Spinal Deformity in Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis
Spinal deformity biomechanics represent a complex topic, as many anatomic and physical variations exist that can affect the biomechanical behavior of the spinal column. Because the Homo sapiens species walks upright, the center of mass lies directly below the vertebral column, which stands in contrast to other vertebrate species [1,2]. In quadrupeds, the center of mass is typically anterior to ...
متن کاملIdiopathic Adolescent Scoliosis: Living with a Physical Deformity
A qualitative, phenomenological, hermeneutical study with the aim of explaining the experience of having a body deformity diagnosed as idiopathic adolescent scoliosis. A semistructured interview conducted with scoliosis patients admitted to the unit of spinal cord at the Vall d’Hebron Hospital was used. The youth defined their scoliosis based on how they perceived their deformity. They spoke of...
متن کاملComparison of Respiratory Muscle Electromyography between Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis and Healthy Subjects
Purpose: Scoliosis is one of the most common spinal deformities that affect chest wall mechanics. Scoliosis results in ventilator disorders and respiratory muscle weakness. However, the mechanism of these disorders is still unknown. The main objective of this study was to identify the intensity of respiratory muscles activity in patients with idiopathic scoliosis compare with healthy indi...
