The problem of scoliosis at the II International Congress of Orthopedics
In addition to Soviet orthopedists, specialists from many countries (Poland, Bulgaria, Hungary, East Germany, Austria, France, USA, etc.) took part in the work of the congress. More than 80 reports were heard on the education of correct posture in children, the occurrence and prevention of scoliosis, their conservative and surgical treatment. For the prevention of scoliosis, first of all, measures are needed to eliminate the conditions for the development of this deformity, the identification of the so-called prescoliotic forms. These forms are found in more than 40% of children of preschool and early school age. This manifests itself in the form of minor postural disturbances, asymmetric position of the shoulders, shoulder blades and other changes. Radiographically already at this stage, in a standing position, it is possible to determine some deviation of the spine to the side.
