    [37] as evidence by the force necessary (mean force ~121 lbs) to physically correct scoliosis during spinal surgery [38] The typical use of braces for idiopathic scoliosis is to prevent progression to surgical range as well as reduce the scoliotic curve of the spine as spinal fusion surgery can reduce mobility due to fusion of the vertebrate ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halo-gravity_traction_device

    Halo-gravity traction (HGT) is a type of traction device utilized to treat spinal deformities such as scoliosis, [1] [2] congenital spine deformities, cervical instability, basilar invagination, and kyphosis. [3] It is used prior to surgical treatment to reduce the difficulty of the following surgery and the need for a more dangerous surgery.

  4. Scoliosis - Wikipedia

    Treatment for idiopathic scoliosis also depends upon the severity of the curvature, the spine's potential for further growth, and the risk that the curvature will progress. Mild scoliosis (less than 30° deviation) and moderate scoliosis (30–45°) can typically be treated conservatively with bracing in conjunction with scoliosis-specific ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harrington_rod

    Harrington rods used in spinal fusion. The Harrington rod (or Harrington implant) is a stainless steel surgical device. [1] Historically, this rod was implanted along the spinal column to treat, among other conditions, a lateral or coronal-plane curvature of the spine, or scoliosis. Up to one million people had Harrington rods implanted for ...

  6. Kyphoscoliosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kyphoscoliosis

    Kyphoscoliosis describes an abnormal curvature of the spine in both the coronal and sagittal planes. It is a combination of kyphosis and scoliosis.This musculoskeletal disorder often leads to other issues in patients, such as under-ventilation of lungs, pulmonary hypertension, difficulty in performing day-to-day activities, and psychological issues emanating from anxiety about acceptance among ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lumbar_spinal_stenosis

    Lumbar spinal stenosis is a common condition and causes substantial morbidity and disability. It is the most common reason people over the age of 65 pursue spinal surgery. [1] The condition affects over 200,000 people in the United States. [1]
