This is confirmed by our research. In this regard, on the basis of the Department of Medical rehabilitation of the Regional Children's Clinical Hospital No. 2 in Voronezh, we conducted an examination of 82 children aged 10 to 17 years using general clinical and instrumental research methods. Of the total number of children examined, half had DST with varying degrees of scoliosis. In boys, the 2nd (41.4%) and 3rd (39.9%) degrees of scoliosis are equally common. Severe scoliosis is less common in girls than in boys (55.2% of cases with grade 2 and 45% with grade 3). In boys, a later but intense growth spurt of the spine, combined with an imbalance of the muscular framework, contributes to a sharp deterioration of scoliosis.</em><em>In girls, the closure of growth zones and a growth spurt occurs at the age of 11-14, which makes it possible to detect a violation of posture at an earlier period than in boys. To prevent scoliosis, all children with DST need follow-up and a more thorough examination during the period of active growth. </em></p> <p><em>Goal: To identify the correlation of DST with scoliotic spinal deformity in children. </em></p> <p><em>Materials and methods. 82 children (41 boys and 41 girls) aged 10 to 17 years with varying degrees of scoliotic spinal deformity were examined and treated at the Department of Medical Rehabilitation of the Regional Children's Clinical Hospital No. 2 in Voronezh. General clinical methods using special tests and instrumental research methods were used. Every second examined child has DST with varying degrees of scoliosis. The 2nd (41.4%) and 3rd (39.9%) degrees of scoliosis are equally common in boys, while the initial stages of scoliosis were more common in girls. The data obtained emphasize the need for early diagnosis of DST and the introduction of individual monitoring programs, especially in regions with a high prevalence of musculoskeletal system pathology. This will significantly reduce the risk of severe spinal deformities and improve the quality of life of patients.</em><em>Outpatient follow-up of children with DST should include quarterly orthopedic checkups, growth dynamics monitoring, and physical therapy courses aimed at strengthening the muscular corset</em></p>connective tissue dysplasiascoliosischildrenдисплазия соединительной тканисколиозпозвоночникдети1.1.Стась Н.
