چکیده
Methods This is a cohort of 43 patients (all female) with AIS who underwent posterior spine fusion. The patients were divided into two group which were thoracic curve group (n=30, Lenke 1, 2, 3, 4) with a mean age of 14.6 years and a mean Cobb angle of 54° and lumbar/thoraco-lumbar group (n=14, Lenke 5, 6) with a mean age of 14.6 years and a mean Cobb angle of 56° Each was compared for preoperative SRS-22 domain scores.

Purpose: Scoliosis is a three-dimensional deformity of the spine in which the resulting imbalance accompanied by the changes in muscle and nervous components can harm the postural control. Various treatments have been suggested so far to correct scoliosis, in which using corrective exercises along with brace are essential to limit the growing curvature, improve spine stability and postural cont...
