    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    French children with scoliosis showed accelerated growth, particularly in trunk segments, compared to normal children. This temporary height increase suggests early maturation, while permanent height differences may indicate genetic factors.

    Area of Science:

    • Pediatrics
    • Orthopedics
    • Human Growth and Development

    Background:

    • Scoliosis is a spinal deformity affecting children.
    • Growth patterns in scoliotic children can differ from healthy peers.
    • Previous studies suggest accelerated growth spurts in scoliotic children in some populations.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate growth patterns in French children with scoliosis.
    • To compare their growth acceleration with German and Swedish children.
    • To determine if French scoliotic children experience pubertal growth acceleration.

    Main Methods:

    • Longitudinal study of 151 French children with scoliosis.
    • Comparison of growth data with normative data from Sweden and Germany.
    • Analysis of height and trunk segment growth during pre-puberty and puberty.

    Main Results:

    • Scoliotic children were significantly taller than control groups.
    • Temporary height excess in upper trunk segments indicated accelerated maturation.
    • Permanent height excess in lower trunk segments suggested genetic influence.

    Conclusions:

    • French children with scoliosis exhibit distinct growth patterns.
    • Accelerated maturation may contribute to temporary height differences.
    • Genetic factors likely play a role in permanent height variations in pediatric scoliosis.
