The authors report their experience in conservative management of idiopathic scoliosis treated in the last 10 years with the Risser localizer cast method. The conclusion is that this method, alone or in combination with braces, is still a particularly effective therapeutic means in the correction of both angular deviation and rotation, provided that a rigid protocol is followed.
