It may lead to progressive deformity and back pain which influences patient's quality of life during adolescence and adulthood. Treatment approach to Scheuermann's kyphosis has not been clearly defined due to its different definitions and obscure nat...
متن کاملConservative treatment with brace and exercise for hyperkyphosis: a retrospective observational cohort study
Participants In December 2013, among all the patients below 18 years of age at first evaluation, present in the database, we selected those respecting the following inclusion criteria: • diagnosis of idiopathic or Scheuermann’s kyphosis • at least two clinical evaluations at the time of therapy start (T0) and stop (T1) • spinal X-rays (lateral projection) at the time T0 and T1 Treatments All pa...
متن کاملRadiographic Outcome of Surgical Treatment of Scheuermann’s Kyphosis: a Comparative Study Between Old and New Spinal Instruments
Scheuermann’s kyphosis (SK) is the most common cause of structural kyphosis in adolescents (1). Surgery appears to be the only way to significantly improve the kyphotic deformity associated with SK. The need for the anterior procedure can be questioned when adequate correction and fusion can be achieved by a posterior procedure alone using pedicular screws with or without Smith-Petersen osteoto...
متن کاملConservative treatment in Scheuermann’s kyphosis: comparison between lateral curve and variation of the vertebral geometry
BACKGROUND Conservative treatment in the Scheuermann's kyphosis obtain, during skeletal growth, remodelling of the deformed vertebras. In a previous paper on Scheuermann's kyphosis, we have studied the geometry variations of all vertebrae included in the curve, before and after the treatment. The purpose of this study was to confirm the effectiveness of conservative treatment in Scheuermann's k...
متن کاملThe surgical treatment of Scheuermann's kyphosis.
The results of surgery in 59 patients with Scheuermann's kyphosis are reported at an average follow-up of 56 months. These show that in skeletally immature patients, in whom the iliac apophysis has not yet fused to the body of the ilium, posterior fusion alone is adequate and is followed by little loss of correction. For skeletally mature patients combined anterior and posterior surgery is reco...
