[Review of 87 cases of scoliosis surgically treated].

Abstract:

BACKGROUND:The authors compared the results and complications in surgical treatment of idiopathic scoliosis with Harrington's rod instrumentation with subtrasversal wires in dorsal treat. METHODS:A research on 87 cases operated on for idiopathic scoliosis from 1987 to 1995 is carried out. The 87 cases include 65 females and 25 males, 16 years old in average (range, 11 to 30). The curvature in Cobb's degrees and rotation of vertebrae with Raimondi's method on radiographs take just before, 15 days later and an year later on operation was measured. The patients have been divided into two groups: the first of 77 patients operated with Harrington's rod instrumentation; the second of 10 patients operated with Harrington's rod instrumentation and subtrasversal wires. RESULTS:In a general analysis without taking in to consideration the type and the seriousness of curvature it was obtained a better correction and derotation of vertebrae in patients of second group. The same group with wires had obtained a better correction and derotation of vertebrae in dorsal scoliosis from 40 degrees to 60 degrees and in the double scoliosis, while the first group obtained better results in dorsal scoliosis from 60 degrees to 80 degrees and in derotation of vertebrae on dorsal treat of double scoliosis. One case of pseudarthrosis in every group was observed. Any neurological complication were observed. CONCLUSIONS:The conclusions is drawn that the application of subtrasversal wire improves the Harrington's technique for the correction and derotation of dorsal and double scoliosis without neurological complications sometimes present with subliminar wires.
