ABSTRACT Objective: To evaluate the prevalence of hidden neuraxial pathology (NAP) revealed in idiopathic scoliosis (IS) in neurologically normal patients. Methods: We selected 401 patients with IS who visited our clinic. We identified patterns of NAP and its frequency. In addition to the main part of ...
ABSTRACT Objective: Evaluate the radiographic results of patients with cerebral palsy and Lonstein and Akbarnia type II scoliosis who underwent intraoperative halofemoral traction (IFAT) and correction with a 3rd provisional nail. Methods: Retrospective case series study. Were evaluated preoperative (P...
ABSTRACT: Introduction: In healthy individuals and in patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS), the curvature of the cervical spine varies greatly, with approximately 36-40% of AIS patients having kyphosis of the cervical spine. Aim: To assess the curvature of the cervical spine in AIS patient...
ABSTRACT: Objective: The analysis of the X-ray results of surgical treatment performed in patients with post-traumatic thoracolumbar kyphosis and identification of the compensatory mechanism for this deformity. Methods: The data of 140 patients surgically treated for painful post-traumatic kyphosis at th...
Introducción: En pocas áreas de la cirugía ortopédica se han producido cambios técnicos tan importantes en las últimas décadas como en la cirugía correctora espinal. Los cambios fundamentales han sobrevenido con los nuevos sistemas de instrumentación espinal, que se han modificado y mejorado sus...
Abstract Objective To evaluate and correlate the pelvic parameters, the sagittal balance (SB), and the functional outcome of the patients submitted to surgical treatment for Scheuermann hyperkyphosis (SK). Methods Patients submitted to surgery between January 2005 and December 2016 were included. The f...
En este manuscrito se revisan las diferentes causas que producen aumento de la cifosis torácica (dorso curvo), específicamente en niños y adolescentes. Las causas del dorso curvo que se analizan en este artículo son: Dorso curvo postural, idiopático, neuromuscular, congénito y enfe...
ABSTRACT Objective: To evaluate the importance of radiography in the orthostatic position in the initial assessment of patients with thoracolumbar transition fractures and whether this image changes the surgical indication. Methods: Medical records and imaging tests of patients treated for thoracolumba...

ABSTRACT Objective To present a new principle for correction of the sagittal plane of the spine through the convergent or divergent placement of monoaxial pedicle screws in this plane, associated with compression or distraction, to provide lordotizing or kyphotizing leverage force. Method A statistic...
