The longitudinal axis rotation of the apical vertebra, the vertebral, spinal, and rib cage deformity in idiopathic scoliosis studied by computer tomography.
Spine 1981 November
The correlation between the lateral curve, the location and the length of the curve, and the longitudinal axis rotation of the apical vertebra has been studied in 65 patients with idiopathic scoliosis using computer-assisted tomography. This method provides the opportunity to describe the relationship between the rib hump, the longitudinal axis rotation, the lateral curve, and the kyphosis-lordosis with exceedingly small radiation doses. The vertebral rotation was found to be correlated to the lateral curve but not to the location of the length of the curve. The longitudinal axis rotation of the vertebrae is the most important factor for the development of the rib hump which is further accentuated by increased lordosis.
