Abstract
Skeletally immature patients with idiopathic scoliosis are at high risk for curve progression. While bracing may be effective for a subset, there exists a need for the development of alternative treatments for these patients. Growth modulation techniques, such as vertebral body stapling and vertebral body tethering, offer a fusionless option, which harnesses a patient׳s remaining growth to progressively correct the curve. These techniques offer a promising alternative to appropriately selected skeletally immature patients with idiopathic scoliosis.
