Idiopathic scoliosis (IS) is a three-dimensional spinal deformity with an unknown etiology which, when left untreated, can have negative health consequences. Physiotherapy plays an important role in the treatment of IS, which is why physiotherapists should have adequate theoretical and practical knowledge about IS diagnosis and treatment methods. T...

Objectives: Distal junctional failure (DJF) is less commonly described than proximal junctional failure following posterior spinal fusion, and particularly adult spinal deformity (ASD) surgery. We describe a case series of patients with DJF, taking into account sagittal spinopelvic alignment, and suggest potential risk factors in light of the curre...

Background: Severe spinal deformity manifests as a pronounced deviation from the normal curvature of the spine in the frontal, sagittal, and horizontal planes, where the coronal plane curvature exceeds 90 degrees and may coincide with hyperkyphotic deformity. The most severe deformities exhibit rigidity, with flexibility below 30%. If left untreate...

Chest deformities in children with scoliosis may result in cardiopulmonary disorders, lowering cardiopulmonary capacity levels. However, results regarding the dependence of cardiopulmonary capacity on the severity level of scoliosis remain controversial. We aimed to use dynamic cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) to investigate exercise capacit...

In recent years, advances in the surgical treatment of adult spinal deformity (ASD) have led to improved outcomes. Although these advances have helped drive the development of deformity surgery to meet the rising volume of patients seeking surgical treatment, many challenges have yet to be solved. Instrumentation failure remains one of the most com...

Background/Objectives: scoliosis is a three-dimensional structural deformity characterized by lateral and rotational curvature of the spine. The current gold-standard method to assess scoliosis is the measurement of lateral curvature of the spine using the Cobb angle in coronal plane radiographs. The interrater variability for Cobb angle measuremen...

Objectives: Conservative treatment of idiopathic scoliosis is more effective as a result of early diagnosis in conjunction with the use of specific physiotherapy and bracing techniques. Our aim was to investigate the effectiveness of specific physiotherapy developed according to the concept of spinal reflex balance using the GraviSpine device. This...

Retrospective, mono-centric cohort research study. The purpose of this study is to validate a novel artificial intelligence (AI)-based algorithm against human-generated ground truth for radiographic parameters of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS). An AI-algorithm was developed that is capable of detecting anatomical structures of interest (clav...

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to investigate postoperative pelvic incidence minus lumbar lordosis mismatch (PI–LL) and health-related quality of life (HRQOL) outcomes to determine age-adjusted PI–LL targets. Method: The dataset encompassed a range of variables, including age, sex, body mass index, Charlson comorbidity index, presence of...

Background: Costello syndrome (CS) is a rare genetic syndrome in which, due to the occurrence of a mutation in the HRAS gene on chromosome 11 that causes the manifestation, a set of features such as a characteristic appearance, many congenital defects, intellectual disability and a genetic predisposition to cancer, friendly personality, and others ...
