简要总结
Early detection of scoliosis and determination of which areas are more affected urban or countryside will help in early management. Also, this will guide the government and the community for early intervention to decrease the factors that leads to this postural abnormality. This also will guide another clinician to search for the cause of these posture deformities and to concentrate screening for special areas with special cultures.
详细描述
Scoliosis may have an impact on the Egyptian society as children between 10-15 years old represent 9.5 % of the population which is the third large category appendix (3). So without the early detection of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis for that age group, bad impacts will be implemented for Egyptian society by causing disabilities and psychological problems for these children.
The early detection of scoliosis is of a great importance as curve detection before skeletal maturation gives a good opportunity for early treatment or prevention of curve progression. Scoliosis has a bad effect on cosmetic appearance, quality of life, Psychological well-being, disability, back Pain, breathing function. It may also progress in adulthood and need further treatment. So a multidimensional and comprehensive evaluation of scoliosis patients is necessary to design a complete therapeutic approach.
