This is a descriptive study about the kinetic and postural evaluation of patients with or without scoliosis deformity, attended by the Physiotherapy program of FESURV - University of Rio Verde-GO. The sample consisted of 31 patients, with or without clinical diagnosis of scoliosis, seen in the sectors of Posturology and Rheumatology, respectively. The patients were evaluated according to a form containing identification data, data related to scoliosis, indicative of pain, physical activity, physical and postural assessment and data on the lateral sliding movements of the pelvis, in order to seek differences between the groups studied. . The general profile of the patients was predominantly characterized by females (87.1%), scoliotics (71.0%), aged between 50 and 60 years (41.9%) and sedentary (74, 2%). At the anterior trunk flexion test to check the gibosity, 26 (83.5%) patients presented it, 24 (77.4%) scoliotic patients in the thoracic or lumbar region, and 2 (6.5%) patients no scoliotics in the lumbar region on the left side. Of the scoliotic patients, 4 (13.0%) had gibosity in the lumbar region, and 20 (64.5%) in the thoracic region. As for gibosity in the scoliotic group, 10 (32.3%) were on the right side and 14 (45.2%) on the left. Differences between the two groups were evident in relation to the foot supports and the pelvis region, where the foot supports of the non-scoliotics were symmetrical with the pelvis preferably anteverted, and the scoliotics with asymmetric foot supports and the elevated pelvis on the left, characterizing the deviation lateral of the pelvis. Statistically, patients who presented gibosity on the right developed a greater range of bilateral movement in pelvic sliding when compared to patients with gibosity on the left, regardless of the region of the spine in which the deformity was manifested. Therefore, it was observed that scoliotic patients, due to the asymmetry of the foot supports and the elevated pelvis, present greater changes in the pelvic sliding movements when compared to non-scoliotics.
