The article deals with the analysis of the correlation between the anatomical shortening of the lower limb and the formation of a scoliotic curve. Despite the fact that the subject matter lacks sufficient research, an attempt is made to consider the data of domestic and foreign scientific studies that shed light on the issue. Within the framework of data analysis in an independent study of a group of 47 patients with shortening of the lower limb combined with vertebral scoliotic deformity, 4 different types of compensatory deformities of the spine were determined. Variants of possible correction were suggested depending on the type and complexity of the deformity. The conducted study stresses the importance of further theoretical and practical development of the subject matter and improvement of therapeutic and preventive measures for scoliosis.
