چکیده
Methods We evaluated 543 patients (497 females/45 males) treated for idiopathic scoliosis with either PSE only (144 patients, 15.5°±9.3°Cobb), or brace and PSE (399 patients, 33.3°±12.1°). Patients started treatment at Risser 0-1, with a minimum age of 10 years, and were followed up to Risser 3. A comparison was then made between the following subgroups: PSE + Sport (PSESP: 88 patients, 14.8°±5.7°) vs PSE only (PSE: 56 patients, 16.6°±13.1°) Brace + PSE + sport (BPSESP: 182 patients, 32.2°±10.7°) vs Brace + PSE (BPSE: 217 patients, 34.2°±13.2°) Outcome: Variation of °Cobb at Risser 3 Statistical analysis: ANOVA, T-Test. Results At the onset we did not find statistically significant differences between the groups. The comparison of °Cobb at Risser 1, and 3, shows better results in PSESP (improvement of 0.53 °) compared to PSE (progression of 1.75 °), but the difference is not statistically significant. Analysis of the results of braced patients at Risser 3 showed improvement of both groups (BPSESP 3.87°, BPSE 3.01°). The difference for the final result was statistically significant (P=0.04).
