Evaluation of Cerebrospinal Fluid Flow in Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis

NCT04760808 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 72

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis (AIS) is the most frequent spinal deformity in adolescence, but its etiology remains unknown. Recent publications suggest a link between ciliopathy and AIS. More specifically a modification of the cerebro-spinal fluid (CSF) flow by ciliary dysfunction could be at the origin of a scoliotic deformity.

This study aims to compare the CSF flow measured by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in an AIS group and a control group.
