Summary

The purpose of our study; is to investigate how balance parameters are affected in comparison with healthy children in children with thoracic hyperkyphosis and to examine the relationship of these results with muscle strength, shortness-flexibility, pain, range of motion, functional status, physical activity level and quality of life. The hypothesis of the study is that children with thoracic hyperkyphosis have impaired balance compared to their healthy peers. With this finding, it can be ensured that clinical evaluations and treatment strategies for balance in children with hyperkifosis are included in the treatment plan. 31 children with thoracic hyperkyphosis were included in the evaluation group, and 31 children with normal physiological curves were included in the control group. Participants were evaluated once by the physical therapist.
