Abstract

Kyphotic deformity is an increase beyond physiologic forward curvature of the spine seen in the sagittal view. Hyperkyphosis is defined as a cobb angle greater than 50°. Scoliosis is a 10° or more deviation of spine from vertical line on a coronal view. Scoliosis can develop in any segment of the spine although thoracic and lumbar scoliosis is more often recognized by clinicians. Depending on the degree of curve, these deformities can be symptom-free or they could have significant symptoms including pain and pulmonary compromise. This chapter will explore their etiologies, presentation, examination, workup, and management of spinal deformities.
