Background: Wiltse approaches have been shown to reduce operative blood loss and
enhance recovery in lumbar spinal surgery; however, their efficacy in neuromuscular …

Purpose: We present the paraspinal approach use for neuromuscular scoliosis with focus on
deformity correction, perioperative (≤ 30 days) morbidity and outcome at a minimal follow …

Background Intraoperative traction has shown improved curve correction in neuromuscular
scoliosis surgery. It is found to be superior to anterior release in terms of correction of both …

Purpose Intra-operative traction (IOT) has emerged as new modality for improving correction
rates in scoliosis since it has the potential to reduce operative time and blood loss in …

The aim of this study is to evaluate the results of the modified Kostuik transilial bar technique
for neuromuscular scoliosis (NS). We reviewed the records of 21 patients treated for NS with …

Objective. The purpose of this study was to determine the efficacy and safety of stopping
segmental pedicle screw instrumentation constructs at L5 in the treatment of neuromuscular …

We compared the clinical, radiological and quality-of-life outcomes between hybrid and total
pedicle screw instrumentation in patients undergoing surgery for neuromuscular scoliosis. A …

The development of spinal deformity in children with underlying neurodisability can affect
their ability to function and impact on their quality of life, as well as compromise provision of …

It is a retrospective analytic study of 1,009 transpedicular screws (689 thoracic and 320
lumbosacral), inserted with free-hand technique in neuromuscular scoliosis using …

Object Minimally invasive correction of adult scoliosis is a surgical method increasing in
popularity. Limited data exist, however, as to how effective these methodologies are in …
