Abstract
The results of surgical treatment of 36 patients with scoliosis, aged 18-29, were presented. Correction by Harrington distractor and posterior spondylosyndesis with allografts was performed. The average deformity correction achieved made up 38,8% of the initial value. Long term results (from 2 to 9 years) were studied in 29 patients. In 2 patients, complete loss of the correction was noted. In the rest of patients, the final correction varied from 9,9 to 49%, average 25,7%, of the initial value. The less is the scoliosis degree and age of a patient, the better is outcome of surgical correction. The preoperative pain syndrome being present in 7 patients was eliminated after operation.
