title: [Dynamic balance in the prevention of growth disorders].
abstract: The authors examine the characteristic of the standing position and the successive developmental phases of proprioceptive afferent stimuli which lead to the coordination of muscles responsible for the control of static and dynamic balance. Subsequently, they analyze pathological changes due to intrinsic factors which are likely to be involved in dysmorphisms of the spine, and to extrinsic factors such as those brought about by orthotic or surgical intervention on the spine. The authors conclude stressing the clinical and prognostic importance of global evaluation of kinetic alterations resulting from zonal changes in the entire complex of the locomotor system.
