Abstract
BACKGROUND: Patients with degenerative scoliosis often present with leg pain, back pain and issues with sagittal balance. Complications following open correction surgery can be high and sagittal balance correction poor using a posterior only technique. We present a case series demonstrating that multiple anterior cages inserted via a minimally invasive lateral or anterior technique is an effective way of correcting the coronal deformity and restoring sagittal balance. Additionally, it provides indirect decompression of neural structures.
