* refers specifically to ASC – cord cases as pioneered by Drs. ABC. The doctors have years and thousands of cases of experience in spine and scoliosis surgery, anterior and posterior.
This scoliosis surgery patient had a posterior fusion with metal rods to correct his scoliosis. Typical results of posterior fusion surgery are a very straight back, with a long linear scar. His remaining mobility only exists in the area below the rods, near his waist. Recovery is typically 6-9 months long.
The scoliosis surgery patient here had a Double Anterior Scoliosis Correction (ASC). Her smaller scars are located on either side of her body, hidden under her arms. Notice her normal-appearing spine, shoulder, and waist symmetry. Also, observe the unrestricted range of motion compared to metal rod fusion. Typical scoliosis surgery recovery time for ASC is 6 weeks.
Has your doctor recommended surgery to correct your scoliosis? While surgery isn’t necessary for every case, it may be helpful depending on the severity of the scoliotic curve, the patient’s age and symptoms, and the scoliosis progression rate. If you’re wondering if surgery is the right option, it may be helpful to look at scoliosis surgery before and after photos.
Shown here are ASC surgery before and after pictures of patients of different ages and with varying curve types (single, double, complex). If you’re interested in learning more about ASC surgery and your eligibility for treatment, reach out to the expert clinicians at the Institute for Spine & Scoliosis today.
