   Sammanfattning : Experimental and clinical studies were performed in order to study the possible influence of the thoracic wall on the pathomechanism of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis, IS. Experimental longitudinal elongation of one rib resulted in a deviation of the vertebra in the frontal plane to the contralateral side of the elongated rib, an anterior displacement in the sagittal plane and a rotation towards the convexity of the curve, thus a deviation identical to the 3-D configuration of the spine seen in IS.
