The risks of scoliosis correction surgery mainly include the following: 1, due to patient factors: scoliosis patients may be accompanied by abnormal heart or lung development, such abnormal heart and lung development may not necessarily manifest in normal times, but because of surgical stress, may lead to a sharp decline in cardiopulmonary function, thus affecting the patient’s life safety; 2, the risk of surgery itself: for example, during the surgical operation may be damaged For example, the patient’s spinal cord may be damaged during the operation, resulting in incomplete paralysis or even total paralysis; the patient’s dura may be damaged, resulting in cerebrospinal fluid leakage; the patient’s nerve roots may be damaged, resulting in pain and numbness in the area innervated by the corresponding nerve roots; 3, internal fixation is necessary for the operation, and such internal fixation may be loosened or broken; 4, incisional infection and other low-probability risks may also be encountered during the operation. In conclusion, with the current technological advances, the safety of scoliosis orthopedic surgery has been greatly improved, so patients should not worry too much about the risks of surgery.
