Three-Dimensional CT Analysis of Congenital Scoliosis and Kyphosis: A New Classification
نویسندگان
چکیده
With advances in spine surgery, congenital spine deformity can now be treated with corrective fusion and osteotomy, even in young children. In these patients, the spine has various complications of vertebral anomalies and congenital fusion. A successful and safe outcome of corrective surgery requires evaluation by imaging preoperatively. Congenital spinal anomaly has conventionally been evaluated on plain radiographs using the classification described by Winter et al. in 1973 (Winter et al. 1973) as formation failure, segmentation failure, and mixed type (Table 1).

Quantitative analysis of the 3-d morphology of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis with implications for surgical strategy
Objective AIS is a three-dimensional (3-D) spinal deformity, characterized by lateral deviation, axial rotation and apical lordosis of three individual curves. The 3-D morphology of the different areas of the scoliotic spine has not been quantified so far. This is the first study to accurately define the 3-D morphology of AIS and compare it to normal anatomy. This is important for understanding...
متن کاملDefining the "Three-Dimensional Sagittal Plane" in Thoracic Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis.
BACKGROUND Obtaining accurate measurements of scoliosis from two-dimensional (2-D) radiographs can be challenging because of the three-dimensional (3-D) nature of the deformity. Previous studies have shown that the sagittal plane, in particular, is misrepresented on 2-D radiographs because of the influence of axial plane rotation. The purpose of the current study was to define a methodology for...

Background Carrying heavy backpacks by school students at growth age can cause irreversible physical harms. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between backpack weight and the incidence of lordosis, kyphosis, scoliosis, and dropped shoulders in elementary school students. Materials and Methods This descriptive-analytical study was conducted in 2015 in Abadan, Iran, and 383 elementa...

Background and Objective: Patients with idiopathic scoliosis often have hypokyphosis in their spines, but some patients may exhibit an increase in kyphosis instead. The aim of this study was to define the effect of the kyphosis on the flexibility of scoliotic curves. Materials and Methods: A total of 100 cases of idiopathic scoliosis were studied with standing posteroanterior and lateral radiog...
