Restoration of thoracic kyphosis by simultaneous translation on two rods for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis.

Introduction: Sagittal and axial corrections of the three-dimensional deformity characteristic of scoliosis remain challenging.

Materials And Method: The author developed a new technique for scoliosis correction consisting of the translation of vertebrae simultaneously towards two rods, which are pre-bent to the correct sagittal profile. Using two rods ensures both reduction and stabilization of the curve.
