Objectives Scoliosis is that spine's arrangement was changed to be curved. Mostly scoliosis was found at childhood and recently rate of scoliosis is increasing. Causes of scoliosis were very various, but the patients are due to idiopathic reasons. Scoliosis was treated by conservative treatment or surgery treatment. If scoliosis is diagnosed early enough, it can be treated with conservative treatment. Methods We are searching PubMed by keywords and found 47 theses complied with requirements. Results Studies of conservative treatment of Scoliosis were active. Conservative treatments are considered before surgery treatment and there was a set guideline of conservative treatment. Also, there were several studies about effectiveness of conservative treatment and quality of life, mental stress. Studies about various kinds of conservative treatment were found as well. There were brief studies about introduction of new brace, effectiveness of several braces, and case studies. Conclusions Conservative treatment is very effective choice before surgery treatment at Scoliosis patient.

Purpose: We analyzed to find out prognostic factors in the conservative treatment for the plantar fasciitis. Materials and Methods: The data were collected from 145 patients, 159 feet (M:F = 51:108) with conservative treatment and analyzed for possible prognostic factors : sex, age of onset, the duration of symptom before treatment, pain score before treatment, the duration for symptom remission, medication period, calcaneal pitch angle, and presence of calcaneal spur. Results: The duration of symptom before conservative treatment is affected to the prognosis, and the borderline of the effective period was about 6 months. Conclusion: With the conservative treatment of the plantar fasciitis, we found that (1) the duration of symptom before the conservative treatment was a prognostic factor, and (2) if the period before the conservative treatment was more than 6 months, the other treatment option such as surgery should be considered for this chronic group.

Background: The optimal management of perianal abscess in children is controversial. Purpose: To evaluate the efficiency of conservative treatment of perianal abscess in children and identify parameters that predict therapy failure. Methods: All cases of children younger than 14 years of age with perianal abscesses between 2001-2016 were evaluated. Results: Of the 113 enrolled patients, 64 underwent subsequent surgery for advanced disease (primary surgery group). Conservative treatment was initiated in 49 patients (primary conservative group) but was stopped because of inefficiency in 25 patients, who were referred for surgery after a median 7.03 days (range, 2 to 16 days). The other 24 patients (48%) initially achieved complete remission after conservative treatment, but 10 were readmitted after a median 34 months (range, 3 to 145 months) with recurrent disease. There were no significant differences in permanent success after conservative treatment between infants (10 of 29, 34%) and older children (4 of 20 [20%], P=0.122). Overall, conservative treatment alone was effective in only 14 of 113 patients. Recurrence after surgery occurred in 16 patients (25%) in the primary surgery group and 11 patients (22%) in the primary conservative group (P=0.75). Univariate analysis of predictors for conservative treatment failure revealed inflammatory values (C-reactive protein and white blood count, P=0.017) and abscess size (P=0.001) as significant parameters, whereas multivariate analysis demonstrated that only abscess size (odds ratio, 3.37; P=0.023) was significant. Conclusion: Conservative treatment of perianal abscess is permanently efficient in only a minority of children but is not associated with a higher recurrence rate after subsequent surgery. Abscess size is a predictor for therapy failure.

An Ameloblastoma is one of the most common odontogenic tumors. The treatment of ameloblastoma has been controversial because of this disease entity as a slow-growing, locally invasive tumor with high rate of recurrence. Recurrence rate of ameloblastoma are reported 15% to 25% after radical treatment and 75% to 90% after conservative treatment. On the other hand, Robinson and Gardner reported that the recurrence rate after conservative treatment of unicystic ameloblastoma was lower than those of multicystic or solid lesion. In this report, what we want to show is to review the articles to find out pros and cons of conservative treatment of ameloblastoma. In addition we would like to discuss which requies conservative treatment or radical treatment are more acceptable through our case report.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to describe the effects of conservative treatment intervention for individual with scoliosis. Methods: Studies were selected through a search of computerized databases of the literature (KERIS, 2000-2010) using "early detection", "conservative treatment", "exercise", "physical therapy", "manipulation", "chiropractic", "therapy", "taping" and "orthosis" as keywords. Selected articles were classified by research design and statistical methods. Results: Application of the search strategy to the KERIS databases resulted in 132 articles. Based on titles and abstracts, 17 studies were selected, excluding articles of overlapping study, surgery, pharmacologic therapy and no correcting aim under conservative treatment. Among the 17 selected studies, the majorityof study design consisted of one group pretest-posttest design and additionally most of these studies were paired (or independent) t-test. The most frequently used intervention was exercise therapy. Conclusion: All articles showed that interventions were effective. Thus, early detection of scoliosis may be connected participation of early conservative treatment. It is important to reduce prevalence of scoliosis in adolescents using regular evaluation as an effective measure.
