title: [Cerebral dysfunction in patients with idiopathic scoliosis].
abstract: To determine a possible involvement of CNS in the etiology of the socalled idiopathic scoliosis, some 115 clinically neurologically and psychically inconspicuous patients suffering from idiopathic scoliosis and some 35 patients with congential scoliosis have been submitted to EEG control. The idiopathic scoliosis group showed a significant percentage of divergence from normal EEG results found in the average normal population. The type and the genesis of the cerebral dysfunction as well as a possible correlation with the etiology of the idiopathic scoliosis are discussed below.
