On September 2nd, the "Children's Scoliosis Outpatient Department" jointly established by the Children's Medical Center of the Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat sen University (hereinafter referred to as "Zhongshan Third Hospital") and the Scoliosis Center officially opened for consultation. Professor Rong Limin, President of Zhongshan Third Hospital, stated that after its establishment, the Children's Medical Center has continued to explore and innovate, no longer limited to pediatric medicine, but has become a platform for interdisciplinary collaboration such as pediatric surgery, traditional Chinese medicine, and adolescent mental health. By integrating the hospital's advantageous specialties and combining with new trends in children's health needs, it continuously launches new specialized services to provide guarantees for children's healthy growth. Scoliosis is a high incidence disease among children and adolescents in China, which has a huge impact on their physical and mental health. The establishment of a pediatric scoliosis specialist clinic is an important measure to ensure and promote children's health by conducting standardized screening, early intervention, and providing targeted treatment measures for children with abnormal spinal curvature. Professor Heizi Qing, Vice President of Zhongshan Third Hospital, stated that scoliosis in children seriously affects their physical development. The establishment of a specialist clinic for scoliosis in children undoubtedly brings good news to many families and is of great significance for early diagnosis and treatment. The hospital's scoliosis center not only gathers top spinal health experts with rich clinical experience and profound professional knowledge, but also accurately judges the type and degree of scoliosis in children, and formulates personalized treatment plans. It is equipped with advanced detection equipment and treatment technology, which will greatly enhance the ability to detect, diagnose and effectively treat scoliosis in children at an early stage. Every child who steps into this place will receive the most professional and meticulous care and assistance, laying a solid foundation for their healthy future. Professor Wu Benquan, Director of the Medical Department of Zhongshan Third Hospital, sincerely hopes that the Pediatric Scoliosis Expert Clinic can uphold its original intention, use exquisite medical skills and noble medical ethics to light up the light of hope for every child in need, and enable them to move forward more confidently and healthily on their path of growth. The pediatric scoliosis specialist clinic is not only the first choice for children to treat scoliosis, but also a solid support for their healthy growth path. I believe that in the future, the outpatient department will continue to bring health and hope to more children with a professional attitude and exquisite medical skills. Professor Chen Zhuanggui, Director of the Children's Medical Center at Zhongshan Third Hospital, stated that scoliosis not only affects the physical and mental health of children, but also affects their physical appearance in adulthood. In severe cases, it can even affect their cardiovascular function. The establishment of a children's scoliosis clinic uses advanced technology and scientific methods to solve the problem of poor posture in children, allowing them to stand up and live and study with more confidence. Professor Huang Zifang, Deputy Director of the Spinal Scoliosis Center at Zhongshan Third Hospital, introduced the characteristics of outpatient diagnosis and treatment for pediatric scoliosis. The age range of 10-16 is the rapid progression period and the golden treatment period for scoliosis. Adolescents in the rapid growth and development stage have rapid bone growth, strong self remodeling ability, and good flexibility of ligament tissue; Scoliosis in adolescence is mostly mild and difficult to correct. If timely and effective intervention and treatment are carried out, scoliosis can be corrected or reversed to the greatest extent possible; After bone development and maturity, timely and effective treatment is also necessary. In addition to adolescent idiopathic scoliosis, congenital scoliosis, neuromuscular scoliosis, comprehensive scoliosis, degenerative scoliosis, and other types of scoliosis require individualized treatment plans developed by specialist doctors based on the etiology, symptoms, and severity of the disease. Not all children with scoliosis require surgery, and continuous management and scientific intervention treatment are crucial. Huang Zifang pointed out that the scoliosis team of Zhongshan Third Hospital has created a new management model, which covers early science popularization and education, early screening, early detection, and early prevention and treatment. It has constructed a clinical surgical treatment safety system for complex and severe rare diseases combined with spinal deformities, and achieved effective management of the entire life cycle of the disease. Establishing a pediatric scoliosis clinic, developing the most suitable treatment plan based on the specific condition of the child, including physical therapy, brace correction, surgical treatment, and other methods to achieve the best treatment effect, ultimately achieving continuous management and scientific intervention treatment for the entire life cycle of children and adolescents.
