Abstract
The problem of early onset scoliosis (EOS) is one of the vital problems in the spine surgery. Common conventional method for treatment of this pathology does not exist, which makes thing worse. One of the leading experts in the world, Jean Dubousset not only possesses a wealth of clinical experience, but also puts forward new bright ideas promoting the advancement of spine medicine. Original approaches to strategy and tactics in the treatment of EOS patients are developed in many countries and regions of the world. The lecture of Jean Dubousset is dedicated to the French experience.
