Abstract
Introduction: Scoliosis may occur because of asymetrical burn injures of the trunk, pelvis and shoulder regions. Material and Results: This work aimed to estimate the frequency of incidence of post burn scoliosis in Mansoura City, three hospitals were included. Results: We had studied 500 patients from both sexes; children aged from 10-16 years (N=115 patients); male children were 46 patients and female children were 69 patients. Adults patients aged from >16-50 years (N=385 patients); male patients were 160 and female patients were 225.All patients are subjected through clinical examination and for the chronic patients plain X-ray (P-A view) for the vertebral column and Cobb angle done using Surgimap spine software.Adult female patients with burn injury were predominant than male patients, Young adult patients were more reported, and female children were predominant than male children patients. Flame burn was highly predominant in adult patients and scald burn was significant for the female (adult and children) patients. The incidence of post burn scoliosis in Mansoura City was 0.006. Conclusion: scoliosis is a rare disease as a complication of postburn injury
