Abstract
ABSTRACT Objective: The study correlates angular radiographic measurements and measurements from photographs of the trunk of patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis. Methods: a cross-sectional study of 10 patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis and indication for surgical treatment in follow-up in the spine sector of HCRFMRP-USP. They were evaluated through measurements taken from clinical photographs of the patient’s torso and angles on panoramic radiographs of the spine. Results: only the correlation between the axilla angle (AHA) and the proximal thoracic curve and main thoracic curve was observed in the sample studied. No correlation was observed between the other compared variables. The study was carried out in a sample with a small number of patients, whose objective was to carry out a pilot study to explore this topic. Conclusion: the analysis of deformities should consider the aesthetic aspect and radiographic evaluation; however, in this study, no statistical correlation was observed between these parameters. Level of Evidence IV; Case Series Study.
