Overview
Scoliosis is the most common spinal deformity. The prevalence of scoliosis is approximately 470-5200 per 100,000 individuals worldwide. Patients of all age groups may develop scoliosis. Curves convex to the right are more common than those to the left, and single or 'C' curves are slightly more common than double or 'S' curve patterns. Scoliosis usually affects individuals of African-American race than any other race. The female to male ratio is approximately 1.5-3 to 1 for idiopathic scoliosis, whereas its equal gender predilection for congenital scoliosis.
Epidemiology and Demographics
Scoliosis is the most common spinal deformity. Highest incidence of scoliosis is in adoloscent women. Epidemiology and demographics of scoliosis is as follows:[1]
Prevalence
Age
- Patients of all age groups may develop scoliosis.
- Congenital scoliosis develops at the age of 0–3 years and have a prevalence of 1000 per 100,000 individuals.[1]
- Adolescent scoliosis develops at the age of 11–18 years and accounts for approximately 90 % of cases of idiopathic scoliosis in children.
- Scoliosis has a prevalence of more than 8000 per 100,000 in adults over the age of 25 and rises up 68000 per 100,000 individuals in the age of over 60 years, caused by degenerative changes in the aging spine.
Race
The severity of curve according to race is as follows:[3]
Race | Mean Curve Magnitude |
---|---|
African - American | 330 |
Caucasian | 280 |
Hispanic | 270 |
Asian | 280 |
Others | 280 |
Gender
- Females are more commonly affected by idiopathic scoliosis than males. The female to male ratio is approximately 1.5-3 to 1.[1][4][5][6][7]
- Congenital scoliosis affects males and females equally.
