  • Title: Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis.
    Author: Haasbeek JF.
    Journal: Postgrad Med; 1997 Jun; 101(6):207-9, 215-6. PubMed ID: 9194874.
    Abstract:
    Although the majority of patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis do not require more than observation, some may indeed need brace therapy or surgery. How do you identify those in whom further investigation or referral is warranted? Dr. Haasbeek reviews methods of clinical detection, available treatment options, and appropriate use of each treatment based on the natural history of the disorder.
