Résumé
Congenital scoliosis is an early-onset spinal deformity cauded by somitogenesis abnormalities. This disease is characterized by rapidly progressing in deformities, often accompanied by concurrent organ malformations. Current treatments include conservative treatment and surgical treatment. Various imaging technology-X-ray, CT, and MRI are used in the diagnosis of the disease. The majority of congential scoliosis deformities has a progressive nature so that close observation is vital and effective at the beginning. In cases of moderate congential scoliosis, non-invasive interventions, such as bracing and traction are effective. In surgery, factors such as age, growth potential and the specific location and type of deformity of individual patients are the basis for using such surgical procedures as epiphysiodesis, hemivertebra resection, growth-friendly techniques, and hybrid techniques in treatment. This paper makes a summery of the etiology pathogenesis, diagnosis and treatment of the congential scoliosis.
