Scoliosis Corrective Surgery With Continuous Intraoperative Neurophysiological Monitoring (IONM).

Scoliosis is a spine deformity that presents as Cobb's angle greater than 10 degrees. Pedicle screw placement can be employed in scoliosis corrective procedures but poses a danger of disrupting the motor and sensory pathways by injuries to the nerves, spinal cord, and vasculature. Occasionally traction weight is applied before the instrumentation for correction.
