Abstract
Objective. To analyze prevalence, characteristics, and peculiarities of trunk status changing in horizontal plane in patients with spinal deformities.
Material and Methods. Examination of 18,500 children and adolescents for trunk deformities in the horizontal plane was performed using computer optical topography.
Results. Spinal deformities were revealed in 536 (2.9 %) patients. Out of them 152 (28.4 %) patients had rotation of the shoulder girdle, 124 (23.1 %) — rotation of the pelvic girdle, and 260 (48.5 %) — torsion of the trunk. It was found that formation of the trunk rotation in the horizontal plane is caused by scoliosis in 93.3 % of cases, by kyphosis — in 5.8 %, and by congenital spinal abnormalities — in 0.8 %.
Conclusion. Rotational trunk deformity is essentially influenced by the level of the curvature localization.
