Abstract
From 1996 to 1998 twenty four patients, aged 12.5- 24.5, with idiopathic scoliosis underwent Cotrel-Dubousset instrumentation. Significant correction of all multiplane spine deformities was achieved: scoliosis - by 50.8%, thoracic hypokyphosis - by 8.1-22.5, torsion - by 24.5%. Lumbar lordosis was preserved. Mean follow up was 10.7 months. Only in 5 patients the loss of the correction was observed and it was equal to 7-8.
