title: [Present views on nonoperative treatment for idiopathic scoliosis].
abstract: The authors have presented valid modern procedure principles in nonoperative treatment of idiopathic scoliosis. It was referred to classification based on infantile, juvenile and adolescent scoliosis, discussing in each of them indications and treatment modes. Beside own experiences were cited many important observations of other authors and it was pointed out, that success of nonoperative treatment is variable and is being based on individual experience of many orthopaedic surgeons, and requires critical analysis of their procedure. Long follow up period of children with scoliosis, bracing and precise X-rays evaluation requires not only surgeons patience but also that of treated children and their parents. Arduous and apparently ineffectively treatment enable in many cases avoidance of serious spine surgery.
