Aim: The aim of the thesis is to lay out a detailed analysis of the probable association of postural stability with a child obesity.

methods were compilations and comparisons of the available expert literature. Furthermore, the authors‘ experience in current therapeutical
field were also used. These were thoroughly examined within a tight group discussion.
Results: The thesis proved the negative impact of obesity
on the postural stability of children suffering from obesity. The authors rightly recommend the examination of the postural stability as part of the
overall medical evaluation of an obese child. This result should then be taken into account while suggesting the child‘s expected physical activity.
