Abstract:
As the undesired results of early spinal fusion have become apparent, "growth-friendly" management methods for early onset scoliosis have been increasing during recent years. Current literature supports the use of repeated corrective cast applications as the initial management for most early onset progressive spinal deformities as either definitive treatment or as a temporizing measure. If casting is not an option or the deformity cannot be controlled via casting, one of the growth-friendly instrumentation techniques is chosen. Growth-friendly surgical methods and implants have been evolving as understanding of the disease improves.

Regions of the Vertebral Column
In an adult, the spine is subdivided into five regions: the cervical, the thoracic, the lumbar, the sacral, and the coccygeal region. The spine initially develops as a series of 33 vertebrae; after 20 years of age, the nine bones in the sacral region, five sacral, and four coccygeal bones fuse to form...
