• Skeletally immature patients with SK benefit from similar exercise programs, but require the addition of a spinal orthosis.
• There is a reproducible and overall successful result in patients with kyphosis between 50 and 80° if initiated before skeletal maturity.
• Bracing in SK focuses on improving thoracic kyphosis, with the goal of vertebral remodeling in skeletally immature patients.
• A formal exercise program with emphasis on thoracic extensor muscle strengthening has been shown to improve function.
• Although studies on efficacy and long-term results are still lacking, current reports on the outcome after brace treatment demonstrate a trend of initial correction averaging 50%, followed by some loss of correction after termination of the brace treatment.
• Significant reduction in pain has also been reported with brace treatment.
