Abstract
Adequate treatment of scoliosis requires from the managing doctor a detailed knowledge about the natural history of the disease for correct indication of the various possibilities for treatment and favourable influence of the spontaneous history. Essential prognostic factors of idiopathic scoliotic forms and congenital or neuromuscular scolioses will be demonstrated.
