< 40 degree scoliosis is blank

31
Q

scoliosis less than 30 degrees does not usually blank

32
Q

exercises and body casts do not prevent blank of scoliosis

A

progression

33
Q

scoliosis brace for 1 prime thoracic

34
Q

scoliosis brace for lumbar and T/L curves

35
Q

operative treatment of scoliosis is for curves bigger than blank and cast is on for blank

A

40 degrees, 3 months

36
Q

scoliosis that needs operation is not performed until child is blank

A

10 years old

37
Q

osteochondrosis of secondary centers (pressure epiphysis) of ossification in the spine (end of long bones most often)

A

scheuermanns disease

38
Q

osteochondrosis of primary center of ossification in the spine

A

calve’s disease

39
Q

idiopathic avascular necrosis affecting epiphyses

A

osteochondrosis

40
Q

common population for getting osteochondrosis

A

boys aged 3 - 10

41
Q

osteochondrosis may blank spontaneously

42
Q

first phase of osteochondrosis

43
Q

second phase of osteochondrosis

A

bone deposition and resorption and revascularization

44
Q

3rd phase of osteochondrosis

A

bone heals

45
Q

an object in body that can mold into normal or abnormal shape depending on forces applied

A

biologic plasticity

46
Q

osteochondrosis fourth phase

A

residual deformity

47
Q

joint incongruity and motion limitation will lead to blank from osteochondrosis

A

osteoarthritis

48
Q

in scheurmanns disease there is a growth disturbance in the blank anteriorly

A

epiphyseal plates

49
Q

scheuermanns disease results in increased blank

50
Q

scheurmanns disease is most common in blank and involves blank vertebrae in the thoracic region

A

older teens, 3-4 adjacent

51
Q

scheuermanns disease may interfere with blank growth and cause blank nodes

A

epiphyseal, schmorl’s

52
Q

goal of intervention of scheurmanns disease is to minimize blank

A

deformities (rounded shoulders/poor posture)

53
Q

disease less common than scheuermanns and is limited to one vertebral body

54
Q

calves disease is usually in these ages

55
Q

calves disease is characterized by blank that creates discrete but destructive lesions in bone

A

avascular necrosis 2 prime

56
Q

calves disease is diagnosed by blank vertebrae on x ray

57
Q

postural syndrome is greater in blank than blank

A

females, males

58
Q

postural syndrome is characterized by blank or blank pain

A

local, referred

59
Q

syndrome characterized by compression of neurovascular bundle as it emerges from thorax and enters upper limb

A

thoracic outlet

60
Q

space between clavicle and first rib

A

clavicular

61
Q

thoracic outlet is in the space between the blank and blank and compartmentalized by the blank

A

clavicle, first rib, scalenes

62
Q

vein entering from arm and exiting between clavicle, first rib and anterior scalenes

A

subclavian

63
Q

thoracic outlet syndrome symptoms are like blank touch or blank of arms

A

cold to touch, heaviness

64
Q

most common fracture of thoracic spine

A

compression

65
Q

less common but more serious thoracic spine injury because of instability

A

fracture dislocation

66
Q

fall from height compression fracture where ligaments are intact and spinal cord is stable but can be injured from fragments of bone

A

burst compression fracture

67
Q

surgery may be done for burst compression fracture to remove blank

68
Q

thoracic spine injury from high velocity injury where ligaments are torn and vertebral column is unstable

A

fracture dislocation

69
Q

these fractures heal very rapidly and almost never nonunion
