Staging growing rod insertion results in increased postoperative complications than the equivalent unstaged procedure

Staging growing rod insertion results in increased postoperative complications than the equivalent unstaged procedure

Aims: Anchor-related complications are the leading cause for unplanned surgery in early-onset scoliosis (EOS). One strategy to reduce unplanned surgery is staging implant insertion. This study compares the outcomes of staged versus unstaged growing rod (GR) insertion, focusing on complication rates....
