• 9-year-old female
  • Initial Cobb angles 24º/12º
  • Risser 0

A Schroth colleague in Toronto, Canada referred this patient with juvenile scoliosis for a brace. After her second brace fitting, an in-brace x-ray demonstrated a 7º overcorrection – meaning the patient’s spine corrected 7° in the opposite direction!

When a patient is young, with a flexible spine, and able to overcorrect in-brace, this is a very positive indicator that some degree of curve improvement may be possible. Less than a year later, follow-up Cobb angles measured just 10º and 6º (when out of brace for 24+ hours). We are so excited that this patient’s curves were reduced by 14° in the thoracic spine and 6° in the lumbar spine! Cases like hers are why our tag line is “Don’t wait and see.”
