Popis: The idiopathic scoliosis is a three dimensional spinal deformity mostly occurring in female adolescents. Untreated it can progress and result in back pain, impaired lung capacity and psychosocial disorders due to the cosmetic appearance of the deformed trunk. The treatment depends on the severity of the curve and ranges from physiotherapy and observation, brace treatment to surgical treatment with partial correction and fusion of the primary curve. Patients with an idiopathic scoliosis should be encouraged to actively take part in sports activities. Positive influences on the general fitness including the lung function, on the trunk muscles and on the psyche can be expected. There are no scientific data indicating that any kind of sport activities alter the natural history of idiopathic scoliosis.
