Comparative Analysis of Pedicle Screw Versus Hook Instrumentation in Posterior Spinal Fusion of Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis
Yongjung J. Kim,Lawrence G. Lenke,Samuel K. Cho,Keith H. Bridwell,Brenda A. Sides,Kathy Blanke +5 more
TL;DR: Pedicle screw instrumentation offers a significantly better major curve correction and postoperative pulmonary function values without neurologic problems compared with hybrid constructs in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis treated at a single institution.
Long-term follow-up and prognosis in untreated patients*
TL;DR: Two hundred and nineteen patients with untreated adolescent idiopathic scoliosis who were seen at the University of Iowa between 1932 and 1948 were studied, and recent information was available on 194 of the patients.

The Lenke classification of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis: how it organizes curve patterns as a template to perform selective fusions of the spine.
TL;DR: To analyze how the Lenke classification of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis provides a template of specific curve patterns that may be appropriate to perform selective fusion of the spine, and to predict when a successful selective main thoracic or thoracolumbar/lumbar fusion will be feasible.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparative analysis of pedicle screw and hook instrumentation in posterior correction and fusion of idiopathic thoracic scoliosis.
TL;DR: Pedicle screw instrumentation alone or in combination with proximal hook instrumentation offers a significantly better primary and secondary curve correction in idiopathic thoracic scoliosis and enables a significantly shorter fusion length.

Rate of complications in scoliosis surgery – a systematic review of the Pub Med literature
TL;DR: This review presents the actual data available on the rate of complications in scoliosis surgery to establish a cost/benefit relation of this intervention and to improve the standard of the information and advice given to patients.
