Idiopathic scoliosis is a three - dimensional deformity of the spine which concerns not only the vertebral column , but also the pelvis and the hips . Asymmetry within these areas may affect the progression of scolisis . Purpose was to compare the isokinetic torques for the hip abductors and adductors muscle groups in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) with that of normal subjects
