Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Operative

Diagnosis of classical Scheuermann's Kyphosis (3 successive vertebrae wedged 5 degrees or more, +/- end plate deformities) or idiopathic structural Kyphosis (rigid structural kyphosis without classic Scheuermann's Kyphosis findings) for which surgical treatment is recommended to prevent progression of the curvature or to correct trunk deformity (unacceptable cosmesis).

No interventions assigned to this group

Non-operative

Diagnosis of classical Scheuermann's Kyphosis (3 successive vertebrae wedged 5 degrees or more, +/- end plate deformities) or idiopathic structural Kyphosis (rigid structural kyphosis without classic Scheuermann's Kyphosis findings) for which surgical treatment was not undertaken.

No interventions assigned to this group

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* Patient age \< 21 years
* Male or female
* Diagnosis of classical Scheuermann's Kyphosis (3 successive vertebrae wedged 5 degrees or more, +/- end plate deformities) or idiopathic structural Kyphosis (rigid structural kyphosis without classic Scheuermann's Kyphosis findings).
* for which surgical treatment is recommended to prevent progression of the curvature or to correct trunk deformity (unacceptable cosmesis) - any deformity magnitude.

OR

* for which surgical treatment is not being undertaken (and alternate treatment, i.e. bracing, or observation) is being pursued for any curve magnitude of clinical concerns of Scheuermann's Kyphosis.

Exclusion Criteria

* Only patients that have had a pre-op MRI performed as a part of their routine care, should be included in this study.

* Previous operated Kyphosis, Scoliosis or Spondylolisthesis
* Neuromuscular co-morbidity
* Post laminectomy kyphosis
