Provide an update of the management options for early onset scoliosis patients, including general assessment, conservative and surgical options.
We included the updated information about the assessment and management options of Early Onset Scoliosis, taking into consideration the non-fusion methods, including the burden on the patient and their family.
With the heterogeneity of this population, it is difficult to get a consensus about a unified protocol for management. Accordingly, the surgeon dealing with these cases needs to be aware of the broad range of surgical and non-surgical methods when treating these patients.
The main aim of early onset scoliosis treatment is to gain a flexible spine associated with normal lung development and thoracic growth. Management needs to be individualized between the surgeon and patient in relation to the etiology and patient conditions.
提供早发性脊柱侧凸患者管理方案的最新信息,包括一般评估、保守治疗和手术治疗方案。
我们纳入了有关早发性脊柱侧凸评估和管理方案的最新信息,同时考虑了非融合方法,包括对患者及其家庭的负担。
由于该人群的异质性,很难就统一的管理方案达成共识。因此,处理这些病例的外科医生在治疗这些患者时需要了解广泛的手术和非手术方法。
早发性脊柱侧凸治疗的主要目标是获得一个灵活的脊柱,同时伴有正常的肺部发育和胸廓生长。管理需要根据病因和患者情况在外科医生和患者之间进行个体化。
