Abstract
Surgical Treatment of High-Grade Dysplastic Spondylolisthesis and Co-Existent Spinal Scoliosis in One Patient
Highlights
Treatment of high-grade dysplastic spondylolisthesis have been reported massively [1], while when concomitant with spinal scoliosis, it was still debated on how to treat these deformities best according to the literature
We report our experience in treatment of one case of high-grade dysplastic spondylolisthesis concomitant with spinal scoliosis
It was reported that spinal scoliosis could be associated with spondylolisthesis, recent studies tend to consider these two pathologies be treated separately, except the scoliosis curve progressed over time [2]
