在Hamann-Todd收集的人类骨骼标本中，1384个胸椎标本中有103个标本(7.4%)与Scheuermann‘s后凸畸形相一致。在94%的受累椎体中，存在明显的椎体前伸。这一前伸是由成熟的松质骨组成的，在形态和X线上与边缘骨赘形成不同。在对照组的50个未受影响的脊椎中，任何椎骨中都没有发现它。相关发现包括椎体楔形和施莫里氏结节。
Changes consistent with Scheuermann's kyphosis were noted in 103 specimens (7.4%) of a sample of 1,384 thoracic spines in the Hamann-Todd collection of human skeletons. In 94% of the affected vertebrae, a distinct anterior elongation of the vertebral centrum was present. This anterior extension was composed of mature cancellous bone and was morphologically and roentgenographically different from marginal osteophyte formation. It was not present in any vertebrae of a control group of 50 unaffected spines. Associated findings included vertebral wedging and Schmori's nodes.
