ABSTRACT
Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) is a common disease with the age of 10 to 18 years, the Cobb angle more than 10 ° on the coronal plane and combined with the rotation of the vertebral body without other organic lesions. The disease can lead to deformity, pain and even damage of cardiopulmonary function, which seriously affects the physical and mental health and quality of life of patients. For mild to moderate AIS patients, regular observation, braces and other conservative treatment methods can effectively delay the progress of scoliosis. For AIS patients whose conservative treatment is ineffective and reaches the surgical threshold, surgery is recommended. Currently, the prevalent surgical method is posterior vertebral body fusion represented by the pedicle screw internal fixation system, which can often achieve good clinical efficacy. In recent years, Physical Therapeutic Scoliosis Specific Exercise (PSSE) has become more and more popular because of its safety and effectiveness. At present, the specific indications for the treatment of AIS patients are gradually improving, the concept and technology of treatment are constantly updated, and the clinical efficacy is constantly improved. This article will start from two aspects of conservative treatment and surgical treatment, mainly describes the commonly used treatment methods in clinical progress and application as well as the problems faced, in order to provide a reference for the selection of clinical treatment.
