aOnce an individual has been diagnosed with scoliosis, no treatment is initially prescribed, and no action is immediately taken, until the Cobb angle has progressed to 25 degrees (which is an arbitary figure; there is no clinical significance to this number), at which point bracing is ...
The angle formed by the intersection of these lines is the Cobb angle, which is measured in degrees using radiographic imaging. The clinical significance of the Cobb angle lies in its ability to provide an objective measure of the severity of spinal curvature. A Cobb angle of 10-25 degrees ...

The aim of the study is to compare the rib-vertebra angles (RVAs) between children with 10 degrees - 20 degrees of Cobb angle late onset idiopathic scoliosis (LOIS) and non-scoliotic children. The RVAs of 47 children, with mean age 12.4 years, who presented LOIS with a Cobb angle 10...
At the index evaluation, the mean Cobb angle was 28.3 degrees +/- 7.2 degrees with an average progression of 9.8 degrees +/- 4.2 degrees at twenty-four weeks of conservative treatment. The thoracolumbar spine was the commonest fracture site and the commonest fracture pattern was compression ...
Brace treatment of Idiopathic Scoliosis is effective for a curve over 40 degrees, but is the evaluation of Cobb angle the only parameter for the indication of treatment?doi:10.23736/s1973-9087.18.04782-2Angelo G AulisaVincenzo GuzzantiFrancesco Falciglia...
The 3D Cobb angles were measured in two ways: the predicted 3D Cobb angle (PRED-3D-CA), which is the maximum value in the smoothed angle map derived from the NURBS curve, and the 2D mapping Cobb angle (MAP-2D-CA), which is the maximal angle formed by the tangent vectors along the ...
This study aimed to evaluate the outcomes of PSF-only surgery for patients with severe NMS with a Cobb angle > 100掳. Materials and Methods: Thirty NMS patients (13 boys and 17 girls; mean age 13.8 years) who underwent PSF-only surgery for scoliosis with a Cobb ang...
