Dual Growing Rods Combined With the Apical Convex Control Pedicle Screw Technique Versus Traditional Dual Growing Rods for the Surgical Treatment of Early-Onset Scoliosis: A Case-Matched 2-Year Study

Abstract: BACKGROUND: Combination of apical control convex pedicle screws (ACPS) with traditional dual growing rods (TDGRs) had better apex control ability for early-onset scoliosis (EOS); however, there is a paucity of studies on the ACPS technique. OBJECTIVE: To compare 3-dimensional deformity correction parameters and complications between the apical control technique (DGR + ACPS) and TDGR in the treatment of EOS. METHODS: … Show more

“…Haapala et al [46] recently reported better correction with similar improvement in pain, self-image and function than VEPTR. Wang et al [22] suggested similar correction with lower complication rates delaying hemivertebrectomy until the age of 3 years. Lin et al [47] described a trend towards anterior cage implantation and shorter fusions during the last 10 years.…”

“…The surgical technique has been widely described in the literature [20] with different variations depending on patient characteristics and surgeon's experience and preferences [21]. Zhao et al [22] proposed an alternative method with a TGR in conjunction to apical derotation screws on the apex of the convexity. On a case match analysis, they found comparable spinal heights and better curve reduction at 2-year follow up.…”
