Abstract

The article presents a study on the self assessment of appearance by patients who underwent posterior spinal fusion with instrumentation for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS). There were not significant preoperative differences found in 93 patients in the all pedicle screw cohort and 61 in the hybrid cohort. A better assessment of self-appearance was determined for all pedicle screw constructs.

Abstract

The article presents a study which compares the efficiency of universal clamps (UCs) and hook in the surgical thoracic correction of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS). The efficiency of the two methods were assessed among 75 patients who undergone thoracic hook from 2001 to 2003, and 75 patients who undergone thoracic UCs with posteromedial translation. It shows that UC is more efficient, as exemplified by its 55% efficiency against the 2% efficiency of hooks among normokyphotic patients.
