What you will cover in this lecture
This spine surgery lecture looks at the complications encountered in the surgical treatment of neuromuscular, congenital and syndromic scoliosis. It begins with an examination of the core issues affecting these patients with non-idiopathic scoliosis. The surgery itself is challenging but the complications are even more difficult to manage. The complications frequently encountered in the operative treatment of these cases are presented, and the revision strategies are explored with examples from clinical cases treated appropriately.
Learning Objectives
- Fundamentals of non-idiopathic scoliosis
- To know the main associated conditions in non-idiopathic scoliosis
- To identify high-risk patients and to learn surgical strategies to minimise the risk of revision
- To manage the main associated complications for each kind of non-idiopathic scoliosis
