Background: The Scoliosis Research Society-30 (SRS-30) is a questionnaire originally developed from the SRS-22r questionnaire and is used to evaluate adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS). It comprised questions on five domains: function, pain, self-image, mental health, and satisfaction, with seven additional questions related to postoperative aspects. In addition to the original English version, translations in multiple languages have been effectively applied. Herein, we evaluated the internal consistency and external validity of the Japanese version of the SRS-30 for AIS patients.
