What is Scoliosis Surgery?

Scoliosis surgery is designed to treat severe scoliosis (curvature of the spine), to balance the spine and prevent the curve from worsening.

How is the surgery performed?

Scoliosis surgery is performed by permanently joining the vertebrae with the use of spinal rods. These rods are also used with or without the use of fusion.

Posterior and Anterior approaches

There is both a posterior (back) and anterior (front) approach to the spine in this surgery, depending on the nature and location of the spinal curve. The bone fusion continues to take place following the surgery and can do so for up to a year.
