[Experience in the conservative management of Scheuermann disease].
Authors analyse their 233 cases of Scheuermann's disease, treated 1980 through 1990 and followed in average until the age of 18.5 years. The material is classified according to the radiological appearance. The assessment of the results was based on the decrease of the dorsal kyphosis, the change of the complaints and of the Radiograms. The efficacity of the braces used in various radiological type. The brace, resting on 3 points, is in atypical form ineffective, in classical appearance success may be expected in 30 per cent from its application. In severe cases, or cases treated only late a brace, resting on 3 points is used for the day and a Milwauke brace in the night. Its efficacity could be increased by the physiotherapeutic ceasing of the flexion contracture of the hip and shoulder and of the ischiocrural tension.
