Assessment of early rib hump deformity correction in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis treated with a dynamic derotation brace using the double rib contour sign
نویسندگان
چکیده
Methods In total, 20 children with right thoracic (n= 14) and double curves (n=6) (right thoracic left lumbar) were assessed. The SRS/SOSORT inclusion criteria for brace treatment were used. The Cobb angle was measured on postero-anterior and the rib index (RI) was calculated from the double rib contour sign (DRCS) according to Grivas et al. 2002 on lateral standing spinal radiographs. The reference vertebra from which the RI was assessed was documented. Statistical analysis was done using the Statistical Package Social Science (SPSS) using the t-test.

BACKGROUND Review of literature reveals that in Idiopathic Scoliosis (IS) children, the post-operative rib hump (RH) correction using full transpedicular screw construct has never been compared to hybrid constructs, applying the Rib-Index (RI) method. Therefore the aim of this report is to study which of the above two constructs offers better postoperative Rib Hump Deformity (RHD) correction. ...

Numerous indirect methods for apical vertebral rotation (AVR) measurement have been reported and none of them seems to be as accurate as computed tomography evaluation. The aim of this study was to compare spinal rotation changes during innovative technique of intraoperative computed tomography (ICT) evaluation with indirect methods such as Perdriolle and clinical evaluation with scoliometer.

متن کاملRib hump deformity assessment using the rib index in adolescent scoliotics treated with full screw or hybrid constructs: aetiological implications
Objectives Idiopathic scoliosis (IS) is a 3D deformity of the trunk with detectable bony asymmetries and deformities not only of the spine the central axis but also of the rib cage and other parts of the body. The thorax, like any other part of the skeleton displays variations in dimensions and proportions. The bony framework of the thorax changes so that the side to side width of the chest cav...
