The impact of a corrective tether on a scoliosis porcine model: a detailed 3D analysis with a 20 weeks follow-up

摘要

PurposeNon-fusion treatment for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis generates interest due to the potential for growth preservation and mobility. Using an established porcine scoliotic model, this study aims to evaluate the global alignment and the morphology of the spine with and without application of a non-fusion corrective tether.
