Abstract

Skolioze i kifoze česte su strukturne deformacije kralježnice sa najvećom pojavnošću u
adolescenciji. Njihov tijek i prognoza ovise ponajviše o etiologiji i dobi u kojoj se bolest
pojavljuje. Prognozu također određuju spol, Risserov znak, Cobbov kut te lokalizacija gibusa.
Najlošiju prognozu imaju skolioze i kifoze koje se javljaju prije 5 godine života,
neuromuskularne etiologije, sa cervikotorakalno ili cervikalno lociranom deformacijom te
velikim Cobbovim kutem. Zbog njihovog kliničkog značaja odnosno psihosocijalnih
problema, boli te kardiopulmonarnog oštećenja, bitno ih je prepoznati na vrijeme i liječiti
ovisno o potencijalu progresivnosti. Dijagnoza skolioza i kifoza postavlja se na temelju
kliničkog pregleda i radioloških karakteristika. Mogućnosti liječenja su opservacija,
konzervativne metode te operacijsko liječenje.

Abstract (english)

Scoliosis and kyphosis are common structural deformations of the spine with the highest
incidence in the adolescence. Their course and prognosis depend largely on the etiology and
age of occurence. Prognosis is also determined with gender, Risser sign, Cobb angle and
location of deformation. The worse prognosis have those scoliosis and kyphosis with
occurence before the age of 5, with neuromuscular etiology, with highly located deformation
and large Cobb angle. Because of their clinical significance and psychosocial problems, pain
and cardiopulmonary damage, it is essential to recognize them on time and heal depending on
their progression. The diagnosis of scoliosis and kyphosis is based on clinical examination
and radiological features. Treatment options are observation, conservative methods and
surgical treatment.
