• Mean major coronal correction rate was 67%. • Pedicle screws provide three-dimensional deformity correction. • Posterior spinal fusion alone (PSF) obtains a good and stable correction for severe scoliosis. Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) can lead to severe deformity. However, early detection and treatment can prevent its progression. Surgical instrumentation for scoliosis treatment has evolved from Harrington instrumentation to pedicle screws. However, there are still some concerns about the efficacy and long-term effects of pedicle screw fixation, and the clinical and radiographic outcomes of surgical treatment for severe AIS (>90°) by posterior spinal fusion alone need to be established. Eight patients with severe and rigid idiopathic scoliosis were recruited for this study. All surgeries were performed by one senior spine surgeon between 2015 and 2018. Free hand technique, intraoperative neurophysiologic monitoring (IONM), and intraoperative fluoroscopy to assess the screw position was performed. Severe scoliosis results in a complex three-dimensional spinal deformity that often requires correction in multiple planes. Mean major coronal correction rate was 67% (45–80%). No major complications occurred during the perioperative period and after one year follow up. Pedicle screws provide three-dimensional deformity correction. There were no complications other than the low-grade late implant-associated infections. Posterior spinal fusion with pedicle screw-only instrumentation obtains a good and stable correction for severe scoliosis. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
