This document is a reply to a comment on a study about the radiological outcomes of magnetically controlled growing rods (MCGRs) for the treatment of early-onset scoliosis in children. The authors express gratitude for the interest in their study and acknowledge the scrutiny it has received. They discuss the methodology of their study and the analysis of the outcomes, emphasizing the efficacy of MCGRs in achieving satisfactory radiological and clinical results. They also provide radiological statistics of patients treated with MCGRs and discuss the potential limitations and complications of the treatment. Overall, the authors hope that their findings will contribute to advancements in the surgical management of early-onset scoliosis.The given text provides data on various measurements related to thoracic kyphosis and lumbar lordosis in patients before and after graduation surgery. The measurements include the mean and standard deviation of thoracic kyphosis and lumbar lordosis at different stages, as well as comparisons between preoperative and postoperative measurements. The data suggests that there are significant differences in these measurements before and after surgery. However, further analysis is needed to understand the specific implications of these findings.The document provides a table of statistical data related to a study on the correction of spinal deformities. The data includes measurements of preoperative height, length of distraction phase, number of lengthenings per year, and growth rates at different spinal levels. The study was conducted by Pawel Grabala, Munish C. Gupta, Daniel E. Pere [Extracted from the article]
