A Prognostic Factor for Progression
نویسندگان
چکیده
Methods: There were 113 AIS patients (95 females and 18 males) who had a curve of more than 40 degrees at the time of presentation, with an average age of 12 years and 10 months. We measured RVA on the convex and concave sides at the apex and 12th vertebrae and measured rib-vertebral angle difference (RVAD) using Mehta's method at each follow-up. We also measured the drooping value of the convex rib after bracing and at final follow-up.
