N2 - OBJECTIVE: Neuromuscular scoliosis (NMS) is often associated with rapid progressive spinal deformities. Indications, when to extend the instrumentation to the pelvis for pelvic obliquity are not generally accepted at this time. This study reports on the indications, surgical technique and results using pedicle screw instrumentation exclusively with or without pelvic fixation for spine fusion in patients with NMS.PATIENTS AND METHODS: Thirty-seven NMS patients were treated with pedicle screw instrumentation (PSI) between 2007 and 2013 with a minimum follow-up of 24 months. The mean age at the time of operation was 14.91 ± 2.03 years (range, 11.17-18.58). Posterior spine fusion (PSF) was conducted in 33 patients; 4 patients underwent a combined anterior spinal release followed by PSF during one-stage surgery. Pelvic fixation was achieved by ilium screws combined with S-1 screws in 4 cases and by sacral-alar-iliac (SAI) technique by Sponseller in 9 cases, respectively.RESULTS: The mean primary Cobb angle was 65.5° (range, 14-103°) and improved significantly to 19.8° (range, 1-50°, p < 0.001) after surgery and 20.5° (range, 3-57, p = 0.47) at 2 years FU, respectively. Besides, an improvement of pelvic obliquity and T1 tilt angle could be detected. Major complications occurred in 19% and minor complications in 32%.CONCLUSION: Pedicle screw fixation only for spine fusion in patients with NMS can be applied safely with reasonable complication rates. An excellent correction in all planes, a significant improvement of the pelvic obliquity and almost no loss of correction at 2 years FU were observed.
