Correction of the spine with magnetically controlled growing rods in early onset scoliosis: a pre-to-post analysis of 21 patients with1-year follow-up

Several studies have emphasized that the magnetically controlled growing rod (MCGR) technique decreases complications and costs and could be considered a safe procedure for treating patients with early onset scoliosis (EOS). To the best of our knowledge, the sagittal profile of patients with an impl...

Description
Summary:Several studies have emphasized that the magnetically controlled growing rod (MCGR) technique decreases complications and costs and could be considered a safe procedure for treating patients with early onset scoliosis (EOS). To the best of our knowledge, the sagittal profile of patients with an implanted MCGR has not been sufficiently studied before.
