The problems of scoliosis screening in the Federal Republic of Germany are outlined. The main pitfall with regard to the high numbers of very mild scolioses seems to be the disregard of mild forms in connection with Scheuermann's disease, in spite of their good prognosis. This group should be clearly separated, by means of a lateral X-ray, from beginning idiopathic adolescent scoliosis, with its doubtful prognosis. Moreover, it is necessary to exclude all curves below 10 degrees shown on the a.p. standing X-ray, not forgetting the fact that a seemingly mild scoliosis might be due in part to misleading projections and positions. The use of an electronic balance scale may be helpful in this respect.
概述了德意志联邦共和国脊柱侧弯筛查的问题。鉴于大量非常轻微的脊柱侧弯病例，主要问题似乎是忽视了与休曼病相关的轻度类型，尽管其预后良好。这一组应通过侧位X线片与特发性青少年脊柱侧弯的早期阶段明确区分开来，后者预后不明。此外，必须排除前后位站立位X线片显示的所有小于10度的侧弯，不要忘记看似轻度的脊柱侧弯可能部分归因于误导性的投影和体位。在这方面，使用电子秤可能会有所帮助。
