GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT OF THE SCAPULA IN CHILDREN WITH SPRENGEL DISEASE AFTER DEFORMATION CORRECTION

Abstract

The topicality of the problem. Congenital high standing of the scapula or Sprengel's disease is a complex anomaly in the development of the shoulder girdle, spine and chest [1,2,3,4,5]. In Sprengel's disease, a complex of developmental anomalies is observed, the main manifestations of which are: violation of the spatial position, growth and deformation of the scapula, displacement in the cranial direction of the proximal end of the clavicle, hypoplasia of the muscles of the shoulder girdle and trunk, up to their complete aplasia, impaired functional state of the neuromuscular apparatus, pathology of the main vessels and impaired peripheral blood flow [6,7,8]. So far, the development and formation of the scapular bone after its reduction to a normal level in children have not been sufficiently studied.
