Pre-operative correction in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis.
One hundred and sixty-seven patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis were allocated prospectively to one of three different groups for correction before undergoing posterior spinal fusion and Harrington instrumentation, In group 1 single curves were corrected by a Risser turnbuckle plaster jacket and double curves by halo-pelvic traction. In Group 2 patients performed Cotrel dynamic tracti...
متن کاملComparison of pre-operative correction X-rays with post-operative correction achieved in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis
Aim: To determine how accurately pre-operative stress radiographs predict the final outcome in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis surgery. Methods: Records of 20 patients were reviewed retrospectively. Pre-operative correction was measured by comparing the initial Cobb angle of the main structural curves on plain standing radiographs to values measured at corresponding levels after correction on t...
متن کاملpredictors of curve flexibility in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis: a retrospective study of 100 patients.
curve flexibility in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (ais) was one of the major concerns of spinal surgeons since the evolution of surgical correction techniques. in this respect, many tried to identify which criteria denote more rigid curve. in the present study, we aimed toward determining important factors influencing ais curve flexibility on supine bending films. we assessed radiographs of ...
متن کاملEffect of posterior surgery on pre- and post-operative sports activity in patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis
Materials and method Among the patients with AIS who underwent surgery in our institution, 15 patients were analyzed. Minimum follow up period post-surgery was 2 years. Patients were all females with an average follow-up of 38 months. The mean patient age at surgery was 14.2±1.5 mean Cobb angle of the major curve preoperatively was 54.3±7.4 and 21.8±6.9 degrees postoperatively. We evaluated the...
متن کاملGeometric structure of spinal curves: application to adolescent idiopathic scoliosis
Discussion The spine is considered as an heterogeneous beam, and is modeled as a deformable wire, along which vertebrae are beads rotating about the wire. Each vertebra can rotate about the 3D spinal curve. 3D spinal curves are compound of plane regions connected together by zones of transition. The 3D spinal curve is uniquely flexed along the plane regions. The angular offsets between adjacent...
