Due to the free treatment campaign for children with scoliosis in June, we have recently seen many children with scoliosis at a very young age, and we will have a targeted treatment for this early onset scoliosis – growth bar therapy. What is growth bar therapy? Early-onset scoliosis (EOS) refers to scoliosis that occurs in younger children before the age of 5 years and has a greater risk of progression, and has an etiology that includes infantile idiopathic, congenital, neuromuscular and syndrome-related. It is progressively worse as the child develops in height and can lead to severe deformities that affect cardiopulmonary development, compress the spinal cord and, in severe cases, lead to neurological impairment and even death due to cardiopulmonary failure. Spinal deformities in children with EOS often occur at the peak of longitudinal spinal growth, and the deformity often worsens progressively with rapid spinal growth. There is now a consensus among orthopaedic spine surgeons nationally and internationally that early surgical intervention is required for severe, progressive early-onset scoliosis deformities where conservative treatment is ineffective. Surgical interventions are divided into two main categories: fusion techniques and nonfusion techniques, each with its own advantages and disadvantages. The first is the conservative method of orthopedic brace correction, which attempts to correct part of the deformity or control the rate of development of the deformity, and then corrects and fixes the fusion surgery when the child is older; however, often the young child is too young to effectively wear the brace, or the deformity develops at a faster rate than the brace can control, and the growth bar both corrects the deformity and does not affect the child’s growth and development, and is suitable for young children with high skeletal development potential. It is suitable for children with high potential for skeletal development.
