Abstract

Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis is a common condition and often requires posterior spinal fusion for treatment. While the goals of surgery are relatively well accepted, the technique for this procedure varies among providers. To facilitate a discussion of differences in surgical planning, approach, and techniques a case-based roundtable discussion with leaders in the field of adolescent idioapthic scolisosis is presented.
