摘要
退变性脊柱侧凸（degenerative scoliosis,DS）是指骨骼成熟以后由于各种退行性改变而引起冠状面Cobb’s角〉10°的脊柱侧凸。DS属于成人脊柱侧凸的范畴,但青少年特发性脊柱侧凸进展至成人期或者继发于骨盆倾斜等其它因素的脊柱侧凸均不属于DS。根据既往报道,DS的人群发生率为6%-68%,而随着人口老龄化的进程,这一比例还在不断增高。
Degenerative scoliosis is one of the main causes of low back pain and cosmetic deformity among the elderly. And it is more prevalent nowadays. Although the etiology is unclear, it is thought to be associated with osteoporosis, asymmetric degeneration, abnormal expression of gene, age, gender, etc. Better understanding the pathogenesis will be useful in the management of degenerative scoliosis.
