These data demonstrate that idiopathic scoliosis indeed alters balance control, with different hierarchies, from the best to the worst as follows: double major, thoracic, thoracolumbar, and lumbar curves in the static test and double major, lumbar, thoracolumbar, and thoracic curves in the slow dynamic test. The location of the major curve appeared to be important, with an effect on lateral disequilibrium and vestibular symmetry. The absence of anomaly in the fast dynamic test suggests that the type of scoliosis does not impair proprioception.
