Flexible growing rods: a pilot study to determine if polymer rod constructs may provide stability to skeletally immature spines
BACKGROUND: Surgical treatments for early onset scoliosis (EOS), including growing rod constructs, involve many complications. Some are due to biomechanical factors. A construct that is more flexible than current instrumentation systems may reduce complications. The purpose of this preliminary study...
