Intraoperative neuromonitoring predicts postoperative deficits in severe pediatric spinal deformity patients.
Spine Deform
January 2024
Department of Orthopedic Surgery, Washington University School of Medicine, 660 S. Euclid, Campus, Box 8233, Saint Louis, MO, 63110, USA.
Purpose: To evaluate intraoperative monitoring (IOM) alerts and neurologic deficits during severe pediatric spinal deformity surgery.
Methods: Patients with a minimum Cobb angle of 100° in any plane or a scheduled vertebral column resection (VCR) with minimum 2-year follow-up were prospectively evaluated (n = 243). Preoperative, immediate postoperative, and 2-year postoperative neurologic status were reported.
Perioperative Complications and Health-related Quality of Life Outcomes in Severe Pediatric Spinal Deformity.
Spine (Phila Pa 1976)
November 2023
Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Washington University in St Louis, St. Louis, MO.
Study Design: Prospective multicenter cohort study.
Objective: To evaluate perioperative complications and mid-term outcomes for severe pediatric spinal deformity.
Summary Of Background Data: Few studies have evaluated the impact of complications on health-related quality of life (HRQoL) outcomes in severe pediatric spinal deformity.
The natural history of curve behavior after brace removal in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis: a literature review.
Spine Deform
May 2023
Paley Orthopedic and Spine Institute at St. Mary's Medical Center, 901 45th Street, West Palm Beach, FL, 33407, USA.
Purpose: Brace treatment is the most common nonoperative treatment to prevent curve progression in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS). The goal of this review and analysis is to characterize curve behavior after completion of brace treatment and to identify factors that may facilitate the estimation of long-term curve progression.
Method: A review of the English language literature was completed using the MEDLINE (PUBMED) database of publications after 1990 until September 2020.
Safe and effective performance of pediatric spinal deformity surgery in patients unwilling to accept blood transfusion: a clinical study and review of literature.
BMC Musculoskelet Disord
February 2021
Department of Orthopedic Surgery, Nicklaus Children's Hospital, 3100 SW 62nd Avenue, Miami, FL, 33155, USA.
Article Synopsis
- * A review of 20 patients revealed significant scoliosis corrections and low blood loss during surgery, with an average estimated blood loss of 307.9 mL and no intraoperative complications.
- * Postoperative outcomes showed minor complications, but none were linked to the refusal of transfusion, suggesting that blood conservation strategies can be successfully implemented in this patient population.
