Abstract
Diseases of the spine (juvenile kyphosis, juvenile osteochondrosis, dysplastic scoliosis) and its functional disorders (non-fixed kyphosis, sluggish posture, flat back, postural disorder) occupy one of the first places in the structure of orthopedic pathology in childhood and adolescence [14]. Of 320 children examined by an orthopedist in a children's clinic for 6 months, 27 (8.4%) had dysplastic scoliosis, 48 (15%) had impaired posture, and 142 (44.4%) had flaccid posture. Out of 48 children with postural disorders, 4 had pathology of the hip joint, 3 had congenital muscular torticollis. One 9-year-old child with dysplastic scoliosis of the 1st degree suffered from congenital clubfoot.
