| dc.description.abstract | Treatment of early onset scoliosis (EOS) is a challenge for patients and orthopedic surgeons. The aim of treatment is to expand the respiratory capacity of the lung and to create a good lung cavity. The main goal of surgical techniques used in the treatment is to correct the deformity without preventing growth. There are treatment algorithms based on distraction and compression. The distraction-based systems include traditional growing rods, magnetically growing rods, vertical expandable prosthesis titanium ribs (VEPTR), and hybrid distraction-based strategy. If curve progression continues despite nonsurgical management, surgical curve control measures are instituted. The best surgical option is dictated by the overall clinical condition of the individual patient. © 2024 Nova Science Publishers, Inc. All rights reserved. | |
