Present: Present our experience with the vertebral body tethering (VBT) technique in surgical treatment for scoliosis. Analyze its advantages, disadvantages, and complications. Methods: A prospective case series, submitted to the VBT technique by our surgical team from September 2020 to March 2022 with a minimum follow-up of six months. Patients with flexible curves between 35º and 65º were operated on. The main thoracic and thoracolumbar/lumbar curves were evaluated with the Cobb method preoperatively, postoperatively, and at the last follow-up. Results: In our series of 60 patients, 90% were

The Chêneau brace has proven its effectiveness in treating the adolescent idiopathic scoliosis patients. However, no studies reported on the analysis of interface pressure in double-curve adolescent idiopathic scoliosis patients. In this study, we evaluated the interface pressure of the Chêneau brace action in double-curve adolescent idiopathic scoliosis patient treatment. A total of 72 (60 girls and 12 boys) patients aged 10 years and above participated in the study.

Abstract:

This review discusses the basic knowledge and recent innovation of surgical treatment for scoliosis. Surgical treatment for scoliosis is indicated, in general, for a curve exceeding 45 to 50 degrees by the Cobb's method on the basis that: 1. Curves larger than 50 degrees progress even after skeletal maturity. 2. Curves larger than 60 degrees cause loss of pulmonary function, and much larger curves cause respiratory failure. 3. Greater the curve progression, the more difficult it is to treat with surgery. Posterior fusion with instrumentation has been the standard form of surgical treatment for

Management of vertebral fracture with percutaneous fixation was first reported in 2004. Advantages of percutaneous fixation are: less tissue dissection; decreased post-operative pain; decreased bleeding and operative time (depending on the steep learning curve); better screw positioning with fluoroscopy compared with an open freehand technique; and a decreased infection rate. The limitations of percutaneous fixation of vertebral fractures include increased radiation exposur

Abstract:

In this article the authors present a method for the backbone recognition and modelling. The process of recognition combines some classical techniques (Hough transformation, GVF snakes) with some new (authors present a method for initial curvature detection, which they call the Falling Ball method). The result enables us to identify high-quality features of the spine and to detect the major deformities of backbone: the intercrestal line, centre sacral vertical line, C7 plumbline; as well as angles: proximal thoracic curve, main thoracic curve, thoracolumbar/lumbar. These features are used for

They underwent short-segment decompression and fixation and followed up for 40.6 (range, 24–68) months. A visual analog scale (VAS) and the Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) were used to measure back pain and disability. We also analyzed patients’ radiologic findings and neurological status.

Abstract:

ABSTRACT SPINAL DEFORMITY AFFECTS adults and adolescents in different ways. Adult deformity patients are skeletally mature and tend to have relatively fixed curves, whereas adolescent patients are skeletally immature with flexible curves. As a result, adult patients typically present with back pain and neurological concerns, whereas adolescents present with cosmetic complaints. The goals of surgery on the adult deformity patient are to treat pain and relieve neurological problems while maintaining or achieving three-dimensional balance.

Introduction: Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) methods have been used to study sensorimotor processing in the spinal cord. However, these techniques confront unwanted noises to the measured signal from the physiological fluctuations. In the spinal cord imaging, most of the challenges are consequences of cardiac and respiratory movement artifacts that are considered as significant sources of noise, especially in the thoracolumbar region. In this study, we investigated the effect of each source of physiological noise and their contribution to the outcome of the analysis of the blood-

Abstract:

The three-dimensional nature of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) necessitates a tridimensional assessment and management. Bracing constitutes the mainstay conservative treatment for mild adolescent idiopathic scoliosis. In the literature hitherto, there has been uncertainty regarding the behavior of the spine, pelvis, and vertebral orientations in the context of bracing, especially in the transverse plane. This poses a challenge to healthcare providers, patients, and their families, as brace treatment, although not as invasive as surgery, is laden with medical and psychological complicati
