Purpose To analyse the complication profile of magnetically controlled growing rods
(MCGRs) in early onset scoliosis (EOS). Methods This is a systematic review using …

BACKGROUND: Over the last several decades, significant advances have occurred in the
assessment and management of spinal deformity. OBJECTIVE: The primary focus of this …

Scoliosis before the age of 5 years is referred to as early-onset scoliosis (EOS). While
causes may vary, EOS can potentially affect respiratory function and lung development as …

BACKGROUND There is no agreement on frequency of distractions of magnetically
controlled growing rods (MCGRs) but more frequent and smaller amounts of distractions …

Early-onset scoliosis (EOS) is defined as any spinal deformity that is present before 10 years
old, regardless of etiology. Deformity must be evaluated based on the intercorrelation …

Study Design. Prospective study. Objective. To identify the factors that are associated with
rod slippage and to study the pattern of achieved length gain with a standard distraction …

Study Design. Analysis of explanted MAGnetic Expansion Control (MAGEC) growing rods.
Objective. To analyze explanted MAGEC rods used in management of early onset scoliosis …

Abstract Study Design This is a review of the current literature on early-onset scoliosis (EOS)
techniques and treatment written by the Growing Spine Committee of the Scoliosis Research …

Aims The aim of this study was to compare the clinical and radiological outcomes of patients
with early-onset scoliosis (EOS), who had undergone spinal fusion after distraction-based …

Abstract Background Context The optimal method for surgical treatment of early onset
scoliosis is currently unknown. Although the aim of growth-friendly systems is to reduce the …
