Abstract
Methods A review of patient files who received MUA between January 2007 and March 2010 at the same outpatient surgery center. Of these, 17 patients had a history of adult scoliosis and had previously tried other conservative therapies for pain for at least six weeks. Patients ranged in age from 37 to 61 years. After reviewing the charts of these 17 patients, 14 of them had completed a 1-year follow-up. Outcome assessments included a Quadruple Visual Analog Scale (QVAS), Functional Rating Index (FRI) and Cobb angle.
