N2  - Background: Idiopathic scoliosis is a common deformity that is associated with high morbidity rates. Neglect or improper treatment eventually leads to progression of the deformity, and subsequently, may distress patients and affect their quality of their life. The SRS-22 is a worldwide valid and reliable tool for quantification of health related quality of life (HRQOL) along idiopathic scoliosis population. It has been translated and validated in multiple countries. Use of SRS-22 seems appropriate for evaluating idiopathic scoliosis in Egypt. However, before application it must be adapted to Egyptian population. Purpose: To trans-culturally adapt the SRS-22 to Egyptian context then determine if it is a valid and a reliable HRQOL assessment tool in Egyptian population with idiopathic scoliosis. Participants: 56 patients with idiopathic scoliosis; 45 females and 11 males with a mean age of 22.11±3.16 years and mean Cobb{u2019}s angle of 20.07{u00B0}±11.09{u00B0}. Methods: Trans-cultural adaptation of SRS-22 in Egyptian context was performed according to the international guidelines (forward translations/ reconciliation/ backward translations/ reconciliation/ post debriefing/ final version). Then, 56 patients with idiopathic scoliosis filled the SRS-22 and a previously validated Roland Morris disability questionnaire (RMDQ). After that, internal consistency and test re-test reliability were measured by the Cronbach{u2019}s Ü and intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC), Concurrent validity was compared to Arabic Egyptian version of RMDQ, Construct validity was investigated by factorial analysis and discriminant validity was investigated by analysis of variance
