Abstract:
This review discusses the basic knowledge and recent innovation of surgical treatment for scoliosis. Surgical treatment for scoliosis is indicated, in general, for a curve exceeding 45 to 50 degrees by the Cobb's method on the basis that: 1. Curves larger than 50 degrees progress even after skeletal maturity. 2. Curves larger than 60 degrees cause loss of pulmonary function, and much larger curves cause respiratory failure. 3. Greater the curve progression, the more difficult it is to treat with surgery. Posterior fusion with instrumentation has been the standard form of surgical treatment for

Abstract:
A long thoracolumbar sagittal rectitude is sometimes present in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis. The purpose of this study was to identify typical patterns, by comparing frontal plane deformities and vertebral rotation leading to this rectitude. Surgical thoracolumbar alignment correction by three-dimensional in situ bending of rods was then analyzed. Pre- and postoperative radiographs of 24 patients with scoliosis (36–104 degrees) were reviewed using Spineview software. Frontal curves and levels of sagittal rectitude were determined. Thoracic kyphosis, lumbar lordosis, sacral slope, pelvic incidence, pelvic tilt, T9 and T1 tilt were measured. Vertebral rotation was measured by computed tomography, Perdriolle's, Nash and Moe's methods. The intervertebral mobility of the rectitude was analyzed on side bending radiographs. Three patterns leading to sagittal rectitude were identified: 11 main thoracic curves (Lenke 1, King 3) with cranial prolongation of the physiological thoracolumbar junction (T7T12) and maximal vertebral rotation above this zone, 13 double major or thoracolumbar curves (Lenke 3 or 5, King 1 or 2) with cranial and caudal prolongation (T9L3) and maximal rotation above and below, 1 lumbar curve (Lenke 5) with caudal rectitude (T12L4) and maximal rotation at L1. There was no relationship between intervertebral mobility and rectitude. Postoperatively, this zone of rectitude disappeared in 17 out of 24 patients after anterior release followed by posterior instrumentation using the in situ bending technique. In situ bending realizes a stepwise correction of the three-dimensional deformity at different levels. An accurate preoperative analysis is mandatory to achieve an adequate sagittal balance, frontal curve correction and vertebral derotation simultaneously. The determined patterns of thoracolumbar rectitude are helpful to plan surgical correction accurately.

Abstract:
In this paper we report preliminary findings in which real-time ultrasound methods was used to measure femoral anteversion (FAV) and tibial torsion (TT) in 67 operative AIS patients (54 girls and 15 boys) with a mean age of 15 years. There are 48 thoracic curves, 15 thoracolumbar curves and 4 lumbar curves. Standard deviation scores (SDSs) of FAVs and TTs were calculated using means and standard deviations from 67 normals of the same age and sex (Kirby et al this meeting). In the femora there is no detectable asymmetry of FAV and FAVs SDSs are not significantly different from the controls. In the 67 AIS patients there is TT asymmetry (mean & SD 4±9°, p<0.001) with the right TT SDSs (but not the left TT SDSs), being greater than controls. In 37 AIS girls with right thoracic curves TT asymmetry is also significantly greater than controls (p = 0.006). There is no statistical association between scoliosis curve severity (thoracic and lumbar) and each of FAV SDSs, (left and right), FAV asymmetry, TT SDSs (left and right) and TT asymmetry. Comparing 48 thoracic with 15 thoracolumbar curves, the mean left FAV SDS is significantly greater for TL than for thoracic curves (p = 0.018). The findings are discussed in relation to the neural control of proximal and distal limb musculature and spinal musculature in health, AIS subjects and school screening referrals.

Abstract:
Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) is a complex condition characterized by a lateral curvature and axial rotational deformity of the spine. Though bracing is effective, a need remains to identify the effect brace type has on spine curvature. To examine differences in patient demographics between the Boston and Providence brace, determine the corrective change in Cobb angle and RVAD and investigate the effect of brace type on curvature over time. A retrospective chart review was conducted of 105 patients diagnosed with AIS from 2013–2016 at CHW. Five spinal parameters were measured: Cobb angle, Risser, RVAD, kyphosis and lordosis. Data was collected before bracing, in-brace and at 24 months. A final treatment outcome of either Cobb angle correction (reduction >5°), stabilization (change ±5°) or progression (deterioration >5°) was then evaluated. Providence brace provided significantly greater in-brace thoracolumbar Cobb angle and RVAD reduction in comparison to the Boston brace (Cobb angle -21.9° vs. -12.5°; RVAD: -1.8° vs. 1.62°). Similarly, Providence users had a significantly smaller increase in Cobb angle and RVAD over time (Cobb angle: thoracic 14.2° vs. 15.0°; thoracolumbar 23.6° vs. 26.0°; RVAD: 5.2° vs. 8.5°). Ultimately, no significant difference in final treatment outcome was established between brace groups. Although the Providence brace provides less of an increase in thoracic and thoracolumbar curvatures over time, both braces are an effective treatment and achieve comparable outcomes. Selection of braces may vary with primary curve angle, curve location, patient compliance and quality of life.

Abstract:
This paper reports a new real-time ultrasound method for measuring vertebral rotation to detect lateral spinal curves of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) in 50 adolescents referred consecutively to hospital from the scoliosis school screening service in Nottingham, England (girls 39, boys 11, median age 15 years). Radiographically the curve types were thoracic 21, thoracolumbar 14 and lumbar 15 with a mean Cobb angle of 17° (range 2-40°). Ultrasound laminal rotation was measured in the prone position from Tl-Sl by one of three observers. The ability of ultrasound laminal rotation to predict the scoliosis curve (Cobb) angle was compared with surface back shape angles calculated at 18 levels from angles of trunk inclinations (ATIs) measured by a Scoliometer in the standing forward bending position. The findings show that ultrasound laminal rotation (and Scoliometer ATI) each with a threshold of 8° predicted Cobb angles of 20° or more with a sensitivity of 95% (79%), specificity of 68% (35%) and positive predictive value of 64% (43%). Overall, the ultrasound method is significantly better than the Scoliometer method for discriminating curves with Cobb angles of 20° (p=0.003, McNemar test). The findings suggest that in school screening for scoliosis ultrasound laminal rotation measured in the community may reduce the number of false positives who are referred to hospital and x-rayed.

Abstract:
The reliability of repeated measurements of thoracic kyphosis from rasterstereographic back shape imaging was examined in 10 volunteers across different age cohorts and in a static back phantom. Coefficients of variation (CV) for five repeated measurements of the 10 subjects ranged from 2.4% to 3.0% for the kyphosis parameters ‘Maximum’, ‘Vertebra prominens to thoracolumbar inflexion point’, and ‘Vertebra prominens to T12’. Mean standard error of measurement values (SEM) as a percentage of mean kyphotic angles were 5.3%, 4.4% and 4.8% for the same three kyphosis parameters, ‘Maximum’, ‘Vertebra prominens to thoracolumbar inflexion point’, and ‘Vertebra prominens to T12’ respectively. The inter-trial CV for repeated imaging of the back phantom ranged from 0.4% to 1.3%. Intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC) ranged from 0.98 to 0.99 for all measurements. Consistent results were demonstrated across the varying age cohorts. The reliability of rasterstereographic evaluation of thoracic kyphosis is largely influenced by postural variations, while minimal errors are attributed to internal system inaccuracies. These results suggest the clinical utility of rasterstereographic imaging in the detection of relatively small curve changes and hence in monitoring of kyphosis progression.

Abstract:
The interrelated results of earlier experimental and clinical studies have provided adequate evidence to support the thoracispinal theory of the pathogenesis of IS. According to this new theory stimulation of longitudinal growth of the left ribs is the origin of right convex thoracic IS in adolescent girls. Subsequently successful attempts also have been made to correct scoliosis in growing rabbits by interventions on the ribs. Case report: Right convex thoracolumbar IS of 26 degrees was diagnosed in a 6-year-old girl. One year later the curve had increased to 46 degrees. The patient was then operated upon by 2 cm shortening of three ribs on the side of the concavity. Fifteen months after the operation the Cobb angle was successively reduced to 30 degrees and after another 12 months to 21 degrees, or by 54 per cent. The results of the earlier studies and of the reported case provide evidence that operations on the ribs if used at proper age under well-defined indications may consistute a new approach in the treatment of early thoracic curves. The vast implications of new, easy-to-perform and harmless operations based on physiological concepts on the overall treatment of early progressing curves need not to be underlined.

Abstract The human thoracolumbar spinal column sustains axial loading under physiological and traumatic loading situations. Clinical studies have focused on the former scenario, and the investigation of low back pain issues and spinal stabilization using artificial devices such as arthroplasty are examples. Investigative studies have largely used quasi-static and vibration loading on the spine segment(s) and spinal columns. The traumatic loading scenario is relatively less researched, and it is a dynamic event. Injuries under this scenario occur in sports, automotive, and combat environments.
