Early results of anterior instrumentation in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis

Öz

Objectives: We evaluated early results of treatment in patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis, who underwent anterior fusion with rigid single-rod third generation instrumentation and titanium surgical mesh implants. Methods: Seventeen patients (15 females, 2 males; mean age 14.9 years; range 11 to 20 years) with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis were included. Of the patient group, four had King type I, six had King type II, two had King type III, two had King type IV, and three patients had lumbar curves. Titanium mesh cages were used in all lumbar procedures, and at the cranial and caudal ends of the instrumented area in thoracic cases. All patients were immobilized in a TLSO for three to six months postoperatively. Preoperative, postoperative and follow-up ortho-radiographs were evaluated. The mean follow-up was 28 months (range 18 to 41 months). Results: The mean pre- and postoperative primary coronal Cobb angles were 51° and 8.6°, respectively. The mean correction was 83.9%. Sagittal balance was also restored with mean angles of 27.5° and 37.6° for thoracic kyphosis and lumbar lordosis, respectively. Spontaneous secondary curve decompensation did not occur. Compared with posterior surgery, the mean number of lumbar levels saved was calculated as 0.93. Postoperative thoracolumbar junctional kyphosis did not develop. Loss of correction, nonunion, and implant failure were not encountered; however, one thoracic case required revision with posterior surgery for proximal screw pull-out. Conclusion: Our early results indicate that anterior correction using third generation single solid rod instrumentation and titanium mesh cages offers a good alternative to posterior instrumentation.
