Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

While a healthy spine has a flat appearance in the axial line in the frontal plane, individuals with scoliosis have lateral flexion to one side and rotation deformity in the horizantal plane. In other words, it is a 3-dimensional problem that causes severe postural disorder in advanced stages, accompanied by lateral flexion of the spine of 10 degrees or more in the frontal plane, axial rotation in the transverse plane and kyphosis-lordosis deformity in the sagittal plane. Especially the "core" region, which is formed by 4 main muscle groups, stabilizes the pelvic organs by balancing intra-abdominal pressure increases and provides spinal stabilization. Studies showing that pelvic floor functions may be affected in normal spinal physiologic curvature changes are available in the literature. However, the relationship between the angle and severity of scoliosis and pelvic floor dysfunctions due to idiopathic scoliosis has not been clearly clarified.

In this context, the study aims to evaluate and compare scoliosis-related parameters (type of scoliosis, cobb angle, axial rotation angle), pelvic floor dynamics and dysfunctions in individuals with idiopathic scoliosis and healthy individuals with the same age group and characteristics.
