Abstract.
This analysis
emphasiz some aspects of
ethiology, biomechanics and pathophysiology in idiopathic scoliosis.
The ehiology of
idiopathic scoliosis is not yet fully elucidated, but it seems that
the real explanation it could be a transitory disorder of central
nervous system, more accurate is balance posture system which
integrates visual, proprioception and vestibular information.
Biomechanics speaking, is triple deformity: a curve of the spine in
the frontal plane, a rotation of the vertebra in the horizontal plane
and a lordosis in a sagittal plane. Even we know all the evolutional
risks of one curve it is difficult to indicate the evolutional
profile of scoliosis after one examination. Anyway, a
patient’s
global evolution, a chronological study of all growth parameters
associated to an objective radiological measurement, will constitute
arguments which will lead to a therapeutic decision
