Assessment and Follow-up of Surgical Treatment of Hemivertebra in Children

Recruiting now

Conditions studied: Hemivertebra

In brief

The treatment of child's vertebral malformations has evolved a lot including the realization of surgical vertebral resections. The surgical techniques used are multiple, require heavy surgery, one or more approaches and surgical time, transfusions, a neurological risk (up to 20% in some series, risk of non-consolidation, insufficient correction). These surgical techniques deserve an evaluation of the early complications and the skeletal maturity of these children (maintenance of the surgical correction, evolution of the associated curvatures).
