Preliminary outcomes after vertebral body tethering (VBT) for lumbar curves and subanalysis of a 1-versus 2-tether construct

Per David Trobisch et al.

Summary: The aim of this study was to analyze the rate of tether breakages after lumbar vertebral body tethering (VBT) and to investigate the effects and potential benefits of using a 2-tether construct. Results showed that the breakage rate after lumbar VBT is high, but using a 2-tether construct can improve it. Despite tether breakage, loss of correction was limited and the revision rate was low.

Anterior vertebral body tethering shows mixed results at 2-year follow-up

Courtney E. Baker et al.

Summary: This study reports on the 2-4 year outcomes of anterior vertebral body tethering (AVBT) for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) patients. The research found that successful cases had an average preoperative kyphosis angle of 26 degrees, compared to 14 degrees in unsuccessful cases; meanwhile, lumbar AVBT had a higher immediate correction rate (76%) and correction speed than thoracic AVBT.

What are parents willing to accept? A prospective study of risk tolerance in AIS surgery

Baron Lonner et al.

Summary: This study examined parental risk aversion towards surgery for Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis (AIS) by analyzing preoperative questionnaires. The results showed that as parents were provided with more detailed information about potential complications, their risk aversion decreased and willingness to proceed with surgery for their child improved.

Does preoperative and intraoperative imaging for anterior vertebral body tethering predict postoperative correction?

Abdul Fettah Buyuk et al.

Summary: In patients undergoing anterior vertebral body tethering (AVBT) for scoliosis, preoperative flexibility films can predict the correction seen on first erect standing radiographs. Surgeons should anticipate an increase in Cobb angle on first erect radiographs compared to intraoperative imaging.
