Risk Factors for Complications Following Paediatric Neuromuscular and Syndromic Scoliosis Correction Surgery: A Systematic Review

open access: yesANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Paediatric neuromuscular and syndromic scoliosis patients have multiple medical comorbidities that increase the risk of postoperative complications. There is a lack of consistent literature assessing the specific risk factors for complications following scoliosis correction surgery in this high‐risk cohort.

Validation of the concavity–convexity quotient as a new method to measure the magnitude of scoliosis

open access: yesJournal of Craniovertebral Junction and Spine, 2020
Objectives: We propose a novel and simple method to determine the magnitude of the curve in scoliosis and its correlation with the Cobb angle. Methods: Using multiple rounds of nominal group technique and an established consensus-building methodology, a ...

Cobb Angle Measurement of Scoliosis with Reduced Variability

open access: yesCoRR, 2012
Cobb angle, which is a measure of spinal curvature is the standard method for quantifying the magnitude of Scoliosis related to spinal deformity in orthopedics. Determining the Cobb angle through manual process is subject to human errors. In this work, we propose a methodology to measure the magnitude of Cobb angle, which appreciably reduces the ...
