Abstract Objective To measure and document the clinical impact of the waiting time for surgical treatment of patients with spinal deformities in a quaternary center in Brazil. Methods In total, 59 patients with spinal deformity waiting for surgery on our hospital's list were evaluated to observe the im...
ABSTRACT Halo-gravity traction is an option that can be used in the treatment of severe spinal deformities. The author reports a complication not yet described in the literature in which rapid correction of the deformity triggered the Bezold Jarisch reflex. Level of evidence IV; Case Series....

Abstract Populational aging increases the incidence of musculoskeletal degenerative processes, such as adult scoliosis (AS). Adult scoliosis is defined as a spinal deformity in the coronal plane with a Cobb angle > 10º. Adult scoliosis may be iatrogenic or result from a degenerative process (scoliosi...
Abstract Objective To virtually prototype a device for external circular fixation of long bone fractures with controlled dynamization made of two different materials and predict their mechanical behavior by using the finite element analysis (FEA) method. Method A software was used for 3D modeling two m...
Introducción
La escolisis es una deformidad tridimencional de la columna vertebral. El objetivo principal del tratamiento es evitar la progresión, lograr la máxima corrección y la artrodesis del menor numero de segmentos, con buen balance coronal y sagital que permita una fusión indolora. El objetiv...
INTRODUCTION: Erector spinae plane block (ESPB) is a recently described technique (2016); its use as continuous analgesia with an intrafascial catheter in anterior scoliosis surgery for pediatric patients in intensive care unit (ICU) has not been reported in the literature. OBJECTIVE: To describe the use...
ABSTRACT Objective: To implement the nursing process, based on the Neuman Systems Model and the International Classification of Nursing Practice terminology, in the care of an adolescent who underwent corrective surgery for juvenile idiopathic scoliosis. Method: This is a qualitative study of the type ...
La escoliosis es una enfermedad frecuente, de evolución variable según su etiología y edad de presentación. El diagnóstico y tratamiento oportuno permiten evitar el compromiso respiratorio, que es su principal complicación. La mayoría de los casos corresponden ...
