Identification of susceptibility loci for scoliosis in FIS families with triple curvesBeth Marosy
Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Institute of Genetic Medicine, The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, Maryland, USA
Am J Med Genet A 152:846-55. 2010..These regions have been previously linked to FIS, however, this is the first time these regions have been implicated in a clinically well-defined subgroup and may suggest a unique genetic etiology for the formation of a triple curve...

Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, MD, USA
Spine 31:1815-9. 2006..CONCLUSION: The data confirm a previously reported genetic locus on chromosome 19 as potentially significant in the etiology of idiopathic scoliosis...
Familial idiopathic scoliosis: evidence of an X-linked susceptibility locusCristina M Justice
Genometrics Section, NHGRI, National Institutes of Health, Baltimore, Maryland, USA
Spine 28:589-94. 2003..CONCLUSION: The results suggest that a region on the X chromosome may be linked to the expression of familial idiopathic scoliosis in a subset of these families...

Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, The Children s Hospital, Aurora, CO, USA
J Pediatr Orthop 32:658-63. 2012..Serial casting has demonstrated efficacy for idiopathic early-onset scoliosis (EOS). Results of casting in nonidiopathic (syndromic and congenital) EOS patients have not previously been well described...
The etiology of adolescent idiopathic scoliosisUri Michael Ahn
New Hampshire Spine Institute, Bedford, USA
Am J Orthop 31:387-95. 2002..Most likely, the etiology is multifactorial, and reported associations are links in pathogenesis rather than etiologic factors. Research is needed to better define the role of all factors in AIS development...

- GENETIC ANALYSIS OF FAMILIAL IDIOPATHIC SCOLIOSISNancy Miller; Fiscal Year: 2006..This may allow for earlier limited surgical intervention and avoid long-term bracing which, in many cases, results in an extensive surgical intervention once initial treatment has failed. ..
