The rotation and structural changes of the apex vertebra in the horizontal plane as well as of the thoracic cage deformity were quantified by measurements on computed tomography (CT) scans from patients with right convex thoracic idiopathic scoliosis (IS). The CT scans were obtained from 12 patients
The segmental effect of Cotrel-Dubousset instrumentation (CDI) on the spine and thoracic cage was investigated in 38 patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis by preoperative and postoperative postero-anterior and lateral radiographs and computed tomography from T1 to S1. Mean Cobb angle decreas
