The treatment of early-onset scoliosis with magnetic growing rods has been established, but
the management at the end of the lengthening program is still controversial. The options …

Purpose Magnetically controlled growing rod systems have been introduced over recent
years as an alternative to traditional growing rods for management of early onset scoliosis …

Introduction Traditional growing rod (TGR) surgery is a treatment technique commonly used
for progressive early-onset scoliosis. Studies have shown that repeated TGR lengthenings …

Background The purpose of this study was to report the radiographic results and
complications of magnetically controlled growing rod (MCGR) treatment in patients with …

Objective. To report 2-year clinical and radiographic results of patients treated with
magnetically controlled growing rods (MCGR). Summary of Background Data. MCGR for …

Background: Growth-sparing techniques for the treatment of early onset scoliosis (EOS)
have developed significantly over the last years. Traditional growing rods (GRs) require …

Introduction One of the major disadvantages of traditional growing rod systems is the
requirement for multiple surgical procedures to lengthen the rods as the patient grows. This …

INTRODUCTION: Early-onset scoliosis (EOS) may result in disability and a reduced life
expectancy. The aim of this study was to report the results of primary magnetically controlled …

Early-onset scoliosis (EOS) is an 'umbrella'term defining scoliosis presenting before the age
of 10 years. It reflects a constellation of conditions, which are challenging to treat. EOS is …
