Given the limited evidence on conservative management in this age group, the report aims to illustrate the potential of early and intensive treatment in controlling curve progression and preserving spinal function during growth. Methods: A six-year-old girl with juvenile idiopathic scoliosis (Risser 0) underwent Schroth physiotherapy six sessions per week and wore a three-dimensional brace for twenty hours daily over twelve months. Outcomes were assessed through radiographic measurement of Cobb angle, scoliometric evaluation of the angle of trunk rotation (ATR), and serial photographic documentation. Results: Radiographic evaluation after twelve months showed a reduction of the thoracic Cobb angle from 29.7\u00b0\u00a0to 17\u00b0and the lumbar Cobb angle from 24.7\u00b0\u00a0to 13\u00b0, reflecting improvements of 43% and 47%, respectively. The thoracic ATR decreased from 12\u00b0\u00a0to 5\u00b0, while the lumbar value remained stable at 1\u00b0. Photographic documentation confirmed visible improvement in postural alignment. Conclusions: Combined Schroth physiotherapy and three-dimensional bracing produced substantial reductions in spinal curvature and trunk rotation in a young patient with juvenile idiopathic scoliosis. The findings suggest that early and intensive conservative treatment may be effective in controlling curve progression and improving postural alignment during the growth period.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3233\/shti260765","type":"book-chapter","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,6,15]],"date-time":"2026-06-15T09:28:54Z","timestamp":1781515734000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Effects of Conservative Treatment of Juvenile Idiopathic Scoliosis Using the Schroth Method and Schroth Brace"],"prefix":"10.3233","author":[{"given":"Nata\u0161a","family":"Horvat","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Scolio Centar, Novi Sad, Serbia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Marina","family":"Had\u017eiahmetovi\u0107","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Scolio Centar, Novi Sad, Serbia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Danka","family":"Ljubojevi\u0107","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Scolio Centar, Novi Sad, Serbia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0009-8868-2299","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Samra","family":"Pjani\u0107","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of pediatric rehabilitation, Institute for physical and rehabilitation medicine \u201cdr Miroslav Zotovic\u201d, Banja Luka, Bosnia & Herzegovina"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9110-2103","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Bojan","family":"Ra\u0161kovi\u0107","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Sports and Physical Education, University of Novi Sad, Novi Sad, Serbia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3180-336X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Vanja","family":"Dimitrijevi\u0107","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Sports and Physical Education, University of Novi Sad, Novi Sad, Serbia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Isidora","family":"Mitra\u0161inovi\u0107","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Scolio Centar, Novi Sad, Serbia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mladen","family":"Milovanovi\u0107","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Scolio Centar, Novi Sad, Serbia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7065-8401","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Nikola","family":"Jevti\u0107","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Scolio Centar, Novi Sad, Serbia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"7437","container-title":["Studies in Health Technology and Informatics","Research into Spinal Deformities 12"],"original-title":[],"link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/ebooks.iospress.nl\/pdf\/doi\/10.3233\/SHTI260765","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,6,15]],"date-time":"2026-06-15T09:28:55Z","timestamp":1781515735000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/ebooks.iospress.nl\/doi\/10.3233\/SHTI260765"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2026,6,15]]},"ISBN":["9781643686677"],"references-count":0,"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3233\/shti260765","relation":{},"ISSN":["0926-9630","1879-8365"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0926-9630","type":"print"},{"value":"1879-8365","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2026,6,15]]}}}
