“…Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) is the most common developmental spine disorder among children. It is characterised by a lateral deviation of the spine, with a Cobb’s angle of more than 10 degrees, that gives rise to the distinctive “S” or “C” shaped bending of the spine [ 1 , 2 ]. According to the World Health Organisation (WHO), it is estimated that 2,000 to 3,000 children aged between 13 and 16 suffer from AIS for every 100,000 adolescents in the world [ 3 ].…”

Background Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) is the most common developmental spine disorder among children. It is characterized by a lateral deviation of the spine that gives rise to the distinctive “S” or “C” shaped bending of the spine. The Lin School of Lingnan Region (LSLR), one of the prominent schools for bare-handed orthopaedic manipulation in southern China, provides preliminary evidences that the orthopaedic manipulation techniques help to correct deviations of the spine. Previous research found that Orthopaedic Manipulation Techniques of LSLR (OMT-LSLR) could reduce the Cobb’s angles in patients with AIS. Therefore, the current study aims to investigate the effectiveness and safety of the OMT-LSLR in treating teenagers with AIS. Methods In this participant-and-assessor-blinded randomized controlled clinical trial, 50 participants identified AIS without surgical indications will be recruited and randomized into two groups to receive physiotherapy scoliosis-specific exercises training with either orthopaedic manipulation or sham manipulation treatment for 16 weeks, followed by post-treatment visits at week 24. Primary outcome measure is the change of Scoliosis Research Society-22 (SRS-22) questionnaire score. Secondary outcome measures include Traditional Chinese version of Spinal Appearance Questionnaire (TC-SAQ) score, Italian Spine Youth Quality of Life (ISYQOL) score, the change of Cobb’s angle measured by Xray, and the change of Cobb’s angle, spinal rotation and muscle volume measured by three-dimensional (3D) ultrasound. The trial will be conducted at the Chinese University of Hong Kong Chinese Medicine Specialty Clinic cum Clinical Teaching and Research Centre in Hong Kong (CUHK-CMSCTRC). Discussion The results of this study will establish comprehensive clinical evidence about the efficacy and safety of the Orthopaedic Manipulation Techniques of the Lin School of Lingnan Region in the Treatment of Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis. One of the characteristics of this trial is that it is a participant-and-assessor-blinded randomized controlled clinical trial with sham manipulation. The study would also apply three-dimensional (3D) ultrasound technology to investigate the relationship between the change of the muscle volume and the spinal curve. Trial registration The trial is registered on ClinicalTrials.gov (Identifier: NCT05639023) on December 6, 2022.

ZusammenfassungWer soll die kindliche Wirbelsäule operieren? Der Erwachsenenchirurg oder der pädiatrische Wirbelsäulenchirurg? Dieser Frage widmet sich der folgende Beitrag unter Berücksichtigung der aktuellen Versorgungslage im deutschsprachigen Raum. Unterschiedliche Altersgruppen, Schweregrad und Häufigkeit der Wirbelsäulenerkrankung, die Invasivität der geplanten Operation sowie vorliegende Grund- und Begleiterkrankungen bei Kindern mit Wirbelsäulenpathologien zeigen die Vielschichtigkeit der Frage und Komplexität einer Lösungsfindung auf.Die Vorteile, welche pädiatrische Chirurgen und Erwachsenenchirurgen aufgrund ihrer spezifischen Ausbildungswege und Berufserfahrung in die Behandlung der kleinen Patienten einbringen, lassen in der Schlussfolgerung die Forderung nach einer intensiven Diskussion auch neuer Ausbildungsschwerpunkte, wie z.B. die Implementierung sog. Fellowships, erstarken.
