The study studied the morphometric changes in body parts of 20 boys and 20 girls 10 years old with scoliosis and compared with healthy children (n=40, 20 boys and 20 girls). It was established that scoliosis leads to violations of not only the functions of the musculoskeletal system, but also the development of negative shifts in anthropometric parameters.
