青少年特发性脊柱侧凸的流行病学研究进展

Progress of Epidemiological Study on Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis

青少年特发性脊柱侧凸是青少年时期常见的脊柱畸形类型。该病病因和发病机制尚不明确,且发病隐匿,往往发现之时已病变严重,对青少年生理、心理造成巨大影响。而筛查是早发现的最有效途径,通过筛查,可以实现早发现早诊断、早干预、早治疗。本文将从病因、发病率、发病特点、筛查方法、侧凸进展的危险因素等几方面对该病的流行病学进行综述。

Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis is a common type of spinal deformity in adolescence.The etiology and pathogenesis of the disease are still unclear,and the onset is insidious,often with severe lesions by the time it is detected,causing great physical and psychological impact on adolescents.Screening is the most effective way of early detection,and through screening,early detection,early diagnosis and intervention can be achieved.In this paper,we will review the epidemiology of this disease from several aspects,including etiology,incidence,morbidity characteristics,screening methods,and risk factors for the progression of lateral convexity.
