Abstract
Objective. To assess surgical treatment results in children with thoracic idiopathic scoliosis.
Material and Methods. Surgical treatment was performed in 263 patients aged from 13 to 18 years and having spinal deformity of 50 to 152° Cobb angle. Three tactical options using dorsal Cotrel – Dubousset instrumentation were applied in surgical correction.
Results. The achieved surgical correction of idiopathic thoracic scoliosis varied from 46.2 to 95,0 %. Lost of correction within a follow-up period of 6-month to 10-year was 5.1 to 10.2 %.
Conclusion. Surgical approach to the treatment of idiopathic thoracic scoliosis should be individual and depend on patient’s age, growth potential, deformity severity, and curve mobility.
