Abstract

Structural scoliosis occurs more commonly in patients with juvenile chronic arthritis than in the normal population. We have reviewed 32 patients with both juvenile arthritis and a scoliosis and suggest that structural curves may arise from postural curves associated with asymmetrical involvement of lower limb joints.
