The impact of direct vertebral rotation (DVR) on radiographic outcome in surgical correction of idiopathic scoliosis
2017
Introduction
Recent developments of spinal instruments allow to address nearly all components of idiopathic scoliosis. Direct vertebral rotation (DVR) maneuver was introduced to correct apical axial vertebral rotation. It is however still not well established how efficiently DVR affects results of scoliosis correction. The object of the study was to evaluate en bloc apical vertebral rotation (DVR) and its impact on coronal and sagittal correction of the spine in patients undergoing surgical scoliosis treatment.
