Study summary

The aim of this study is to examine the functional parameters of hip and jaw in terms of scoliosis degree and scoliosis pattern in individuals with idiopathic scoliosis.

Read the detailed description

In this study investigators will examine the hip functional parameters and jaw functional parameters separately.

In hip study hip functional parameters will be evaluated for determining the correlation between scoliosis degree/pattern and hip functions.

In jaw study jaw functional parameters will be evaluated for determining the correlation between scoliosis degree/pattern and hip functions.

Study population

Our study will include cases who applied to Hacettepe University, Faculty of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation with a diagnosis of scoliosis, had anterior-posterior and lateral radiographs, accepted to participate in the study on a voluntary basis, were literate and cooperated in completing the scales. In cases under the age of 18, the evaluation will be started by obtaining additional family consent.

  • To cooperate in answering and implementing evaluation scales,
  • Children with written consent from their parents and themselves will be included.

Exclusion Criteria: (for hip evaluation)

  • Having any systemic illness,
  • Spinal surgery history,
  • Presence of any acute or chronic disease other than scoliosis,
  • Inadequate quality to examine the measurement parameters of the current vertebral radiography,
  • Use of musical instruments,
  • Long-term and professional sports.

Exclusion Criteria: (for jaw evaluation)

  • Having any systemic illness,
  • Spinal surgery history,
  • Presence of any acute or chronic disease other than scoliosis,
