Pathogenesis of Idiopathic Scoliosis
28 A clear understanding of the pathogenesis of idiopathic scoliosis is essential to appreciating its clinical behavior. Although epidemiological surveys have shown an enormous number of children with minor coronal-plane deformities of the spine, only a relatively small number show evidence of progressive idiopathic scoliosis, which means that other factors must be superimposed to make a deform...
متن کاملIdiopathic scoliosis pathogenesis
Based on long-term investigations we have concluded that IS is a compensatory response of the vertebral complex and has several strictly sequential stages: The first stage – pre-clinical. The usage of physiological kyphosis reserve (kyphosis is being transformed into lordosis). The second stage – sub-clinical. Elimination of the “excess” length of osseous vertebra column owing to its torsion ar...
متن کاملPathogenesis of idiopathic scoliosis: a review.
UNLABELLED Idiopathic scoliosis is a three-dimensional deformation of the spine. As its name suggests, its pathogenesis remains poorly understood. Enhanced comprehension of its pathogenesis would be likely to improve current therapeutic results. While the hereditary and genetic origin of scoliosis appears unassailable and several chromosomes are known to be involved in transmission, the role as...
متن کاملHypothesis on the Pathogenesis of Idiopathic Scoliosis
Idiopathic scoliosis is a deformity of the torso, characterized by lateral deviation and axial rotation of the spine. Although good anatomic descriptions of the structural changes seen in scoliosis were first made by the ancient Greeks, we have not as yet elucidated its pathogenesis. The deformity always develops from a straight spine into a curved spine, usually accompanied by a rib cage defor...
متن کاملGenetics and pathogenesis of idiopathic scoliosis
Idiopathic scoliosis (IS), the most common spinal deformity, affects otherwise healthy children and adolescents during growth. The aetiology is still unknown, although genetic factors are believed to be important. The present review corroborates the understanding of IS as a complex disease with a polygenic background. Presumably IS can be due to a spectrum of genetic risk variants, ranging from...
