A head-to-head comparison of the adult EQ-5D-5L and youth EQ-5D-Y-5L in adolescents with idiopathic scoliosis.

Background: Multiple diseases, such as Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis (AIS), present at adolescent age and the impact on quality of life (QoL) prolongs into adulthood. For the EQ-5D, a commonly used instrument to measure QoL, the current guideline is ambiguous whether the youth or adult version is to be preferred at adolescent age. To assess which is most suitable, this study tested for equivalence along predefined criteria of the youth (EQ-5D-5L) and adult (EQ-5D-Y-5L) version in an adolescent population receiving bracing therapy for AIS.

Department of Pediatric Orthopaedic Surgery, Robert Debré University Hospital, Assistance Publique des Hôpitaux de Paris (AP-HP).
Background: Lower instrumented vertebra (LIV) selection for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) with structural lumbar curves (Lenke 3, 5, and 6) remains debated. The iliolumbar angle (ILA) measurement is useful for assessing the lumbosacral junction flexibility. If it is nonreducible, surgeons need to make a difficult choice between a potential "imperfect" L4, associated with a residual lumbosacral curve, or a more distal fusion performed later in life due to poorer functional outcomes.

Purpose: In congenital scoliosis, the surgical strategy approach of hemivertebra excision, with or without instrumentation and fusion, is a common approach to correction of scoliosis. However, hemivertebra excisions are technically challenging, with potential complications including spinal cord injury, nerve root injury and cerebrospinal fluid leak. The purpose of this study was to determine whether correction of congenital scoliosis can be achieved using a posterior instrumentation/fusion-only approach without the need for hemivertebra excision.

Does the Chêneau brace affect gait pattern and body balance of adolescents with idiopathic scoliosis?
Acta Bioeng Biomech

: This study evaluated changes in selected spatiotemporal and kinematic gait parameters and balance in girls with Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) with and without the Chêneau brace. : 15 subjects with scoliosis wearing the Chêneau brace and an equal comparative control group underwent objective gait analysis with the 3D BTS motion caption system. Balance assessment was done with the Kistler platform.
