Scoliosis and Prognosis —a systematic review regarding patient-specific and radiological predictive factors for curve progression

DiscussionThis systematic review summarised the current state of knowledge as the basis for creation of patient-specific algorithms regarding a risk calculation for a progressive scoliotic deformity. Curve magnitude is the most relevant predictive factor, followed by status of skeletal maturity and curve location.
