Study:

Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis surgery has been

going on for many decades. Our operating series began

in 1992 and has continued over the years with a certain

numerical constancy, up to now, having operated some

hundreds of patients.

Objectives:

The aim of surgery of severe adolescent

idiopathic scoliosis is to rebalance the spine, stabilizing

the correction obtained to avoid further aggravation of the

deformity.

Methods:

Since 2012we use a prosthetic systemassociated

with a philosophy of correction. We have always modeled

the bar on the sagittal plane and corrected the scoliosis by

translation, then performing a real direct derotation.

We have associated compression and distraction maneuvers

in the selected cases. We have carried out systems rich in

instrumentation, in general, screws and we have connected

them with Cobalt Chrome bars.

Results:

The results are good in terms of correction and

therefore rebalancing of the rachis and therefore of the

shoulders and pelvis, maintenance of the correction

obtained and also a discrete reduction of the hump.

We have not been free from short- and medium-term

complications.

Conclusions:

The aim is to rebalance the spine and stabilize

it in the arthrodesis area to avoid its development. They

say that after one year from this surgery the patient can

perform a gymnastic activity, even in a competitive nature.
