Journal ArticleDOI
The Boston bracing system for idiopathic scoliosis. Follow-up results in 295 patients.
TL;DR: A strong correlation between best, or initial in-brace correction, and follow-up correction was noted and young age at the initiation of bracing and higher degrees of pre-brace curvature increased the incidence of surgery.
Journal ArticleDOI
Chronic Monteggia Lesions in Children.: Complications and Results of Reconstruction*
TL;DR: The results of operative treatment of chronic Monteggia lesions (Bado type I or the equivalent) with anterior radiocapitellar dislocation in seven patients were retrospectively reviewed, finding three good, two fair, and two poor results.
Journal ArticleDOI
Childhood scoliosis: clinical indications for magnetic resonance imaging.
TL;DR: Four of the intraspinal abnormalities in the fourteen patients necessitated neurosurgical intervention; if the criteria for obtaining the imaging study had been restricted to neck pain and headache--particularly with exertion--and neurological findings such as ataxia, weakness, and a cavus foot, these abnormalities would have been diagnosed.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Statistical Comparison Between Natural History of Idiopathic Scoliosis and Brace Treatment in Skeletally Immature Adolescent Girls
TL;DR: Questions are raised about the efficacy of spinal orthoses in modifying the natural history of late-onset idiopathic scoliosis and the ethical problems inherent in a prospective trial in which the only treatment permitted to the control group is surgery are removed.
