Abstract

10. J Pediatr Orthop B. 2001 Jan;10(1):6-9. Scoliosis in cerebral palsy: an overview and recent results. Thomson JD(1), Banta JV. Author information: (1)Newington Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Connecticut Children's Medical Center (CCMC), Hartford, CT 06106, USA. The natural history of scoliosis in cerebral palsy as well as the treatments that include observation, bracing, and surgery are reviewed. If surgery is indicated, a careful preoperative evaluation is essential, focusing especially on the patient's nutritional, gastrointestinal, neurologic, and orthopedic systems. Intraoperative and perioperative issues such as blood loss control are reviewed. The Luque-Galveston method of instrumentation for scoliosis secondary to cerebral palsy is our preferred method of treatment. Our recent results compare favorably with the literature with fewer complications.
