Abstract
BACKGROUND CONTEXT: Thoracic pedicle screw (TPS constructs) have improved clinical outcomes, and reduced revision surgical rates compared with hook and hybrid constructs in the treatment of AIS. Although placement of screws bilaterally at every level improves construct stiffness, the optimal implant density, or #screws/level, remains unknown in the treatment of flexible, thoracic curves.
