BACKGROUND: Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) is a common structural spine deformity affecting 2%–4% of adolescents. Due to the unknown cause of idiopathic scoliosis, its therapy is a long-term and often unsatisfactory process. In the literature, it is often suggested that problems related to the feeling of one’s own body are caused by AIS. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to assess the feeling of one’s own body among children with and without scoliosis on the example of feeling the head position, pelvis shape and balance. METHOD: The research included 62 children: 30 with scoliosis and 25 without diagnosed scoliosis with an age range between 11 to 19 years. The minimum scoliosis value was 7∘ and the maximum was 53∘. The average value was 25∘. During the study, three functional tests were used: Cervical Joint Position Error Test (CJPET), Clinical Test of Sensory Integration on Balance (CTSIB) and Body proportion demonstration test (BPDT). RESULTS: The results of the tests showed statistically significant differences (CJPET p= 3.54* 10-14, CTSIB p= 0.0376, BPDT p= 0.0127). However, none of the studies showed a correlation between the results of people with scoliosis and the value of their Cobb angles.

Object Cervical spine osteotomies are powerful techniques to correct rigid cervical spine deformity. Many variations exist, however, and there is no current standardized system with which to describe and classify cervical osteotomies. This complicates the ability to compare outcomes across procedures and studies. The authors' objective was to establish a universal nomenclature for cervical spine osteotomies to provide a common language among spine surgeons. Methods A proposed nomenclature with 7 anatomical grades of increasing extent of bone/soft tissue resection and destabilization was designed. The highest grade of resection is termed the major osteotomy, and an approach modifier is used to denote the surgical approach(es), including anterior (A), posterior (P), anterior-posterior (AP), posterior-anterior (PA), anterior-posterior-anterior (APA), and posterior-anterior-posterior (PAP). For cases in which multiple grades of osteotomies were performed, the highest grade is termed the major osteotomy, and lower-grade osteotomies are termed minor osteotomies. The nomenclature was evaluated by 11 reviewers through 25 different radiographic clinical cases. The review was performed twice, separated by a minimum 1-week interval. Reliability was assessed using Fleiss kappa coefficients. Results The average intrarater reliability was classified as “almost perfect agreement” for the major osteotomy (0.89 [range 0.60–1.00]) and approach modifier (0.99 [0.95–1.00]); it was classified as “moderate agreement” for the minor osteotomy (0.73 [range 0.41–1.00]). The average interrater reliability for the 2 readings was the following: major osteotomy, 0.87 (“almost perfect agreement”); approach modifier, 0.99 (“almost perfect agreement”); and minor osteotomy, 0.55 (“moderate agreement”). Analysis of only major osteotomy plus approach modifier yielded a classification that was “almost perfect” with an average intrarater reliability of 0.90 (0.63–1.00) and an interrater reliability of 0.88 and 0.86 for the two reviews. Conclusions The proposed cervical spine osteotomy nomenclature provides the surgeon with a simple, standard description of the various cervical osteotomies. The reliability analysis demonstrated that this system is consistent and directly applicable. Future work will evaluate the relationship between this system and health-related quality of life metrics.

Tactics of surgical treatment of spondyloptosis including use of transpedicular external fixation device is presented. There were 4 patients with L5 spondyloptosis. The tactics is characterized by minor traumatization of lumbosacral spine with external fixation device, decrease of neurologic complications rate owing to gradual L5 reduction, possibility of spine deformity elimination, significant technical simplification of internal transpedicular osteosynthesis performance. Clinical results showed normalization of anatomic interrelation in lumbosacral spine, elimination of vertebroradicular conflict, restoration of trunk balance and anthropometric proportion as well as stabilization of L5-S1 segment by osteo-metalic block.

AbstractBackground:Severe and rigid scoliosis and kyphosis are difficult to treat but with the advent of new spinal operative techniques and implants, it has become man-ageable in expert hands. However these implants are too expensive for developing countries like us. The Halo-pelvic traction is a relatively cheaper device sys-tem used to treat such deformities. Moreover, rapid curve correction and one stage surgery may lead to permanent neurological deficit.Objective:To evaluate treatment outcome of Halo-pelvic Traction in the treatment of severe scoliosis and kyphosis.Methodology:This descriptive study was conducted in the department of Orthopedics surgery and traumatology unit I, King Edward Medical University, Mayo Hospital Lahore from September 2010 to August 2012. The patients with severe spinal deformity which could not be corrected at a single stage were included. A Performa was made for each patient and results were statistically analyzed by using SPSS version 20.Results:Total no. of 07 patients were treated, out of them 04 scoliosis patients having mean Cobbs angle of 77.25 5.31 before treatment, improved significantly to 45 5.35 after surgery (p?0.0001), 03 kyphosis patients with mean Kyphus angle of 96.67 24.66 improved to 58.33 17.56 (p?0.0001). Two major complications i.e. one paraplegia which recovered incompletely and one had CSF discharge from cranial pin that was also revived thoroughly after changing the position of the pin.Conclusion:Halopelvic traction device can help in treating the patients of severe scoliosis and kyphosis.Keywords:Kyphosis, Halo-Pelvic, Kyphus angle, Cobbs angle.

Objective. To analyze mathematical model of the efficiency of the compensatory mechanism of the deformed spine. Material and Methods. The developed basic kinematic model of the spine was used. The restoration of the position of the projection of the general center of mass (GCM) was mathematically modeled, and mechanogenesis of the spinal deformity and possibility of its compensation were evaluated. To assess the reliability of the mathematical model, spinal skiagrams taken from patients with clinically confirmed pathology and sagittal imbalance were used. Results. On the basis of quantitative characteristics of the primary spine deformity of a certain clinical case and using the developed algorithm, it is possible to create a model of both a primary deformity and a compensatory response from intact segments of the spine taking into account the influencing factors. This makes it possible to use the proposed kinematic model in scientific research on predicting the course of various types of spinal deformities. Conclusion. The proposed algorithms simulating the development of spinal deformities based on the restoration of the position of the GCM projection reflect their mechanogenesis and can be used to model various pathological conditions of the spine. A complete correction of the deformity does not mean a complete cure, since the required spinal fusion creates a new, prognostically less significant, but pathological situation.
