doi : 10.1007/s00586-021-06972-4
European Spine Journal volume 30, pages3442–3449 (2021)
Vertebral body tethering (VBT) has been reported as a safe and effective non-fusion surgical technique for the treatment of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis, but the postoperative health of the bone and soft tissues of the spine following instrumentation remains unknown. We aimed to evaluate pathoanatomy and degenerative changes of the spine in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis patients both prior to and two years following VBT.
Radial trend in murine annulus fibrosus fiber orientation is best explained by vertebral growth
Ali Raza & Arthur J. Michalek
doi : 10.1007/s00586-021-06999-7
European Spine Journal volume 30, pages3450–3456 (2021)
The intervertebral disc (IVD) annulus fibrosus (AF) is composed of concentric lamellae with alternating right- and left-handed helically oriented collagen fiber bundles. This arrangement results in anisotropic material properties, which depend on local fiber orientations. Prior measurements of fiber inclination angles in human lumbar and bovine caudal IVDs found a significantly higher inclination angle in the inner AF than outer, though it is currently unknown if this pattern is conserved in smaller mammalian species. Additionally, the physical mechanism behind this pattern remains un-determined.

Inter- and intrarater reliability of measuring lengthening of magnetically controlled growing rods on digital radiographs
Charlotte Sommer Meyer, Peter Doering, Peter Heide Pedersen, Kresten Wendell Rickers & Søren Peter Eiskjær
doi : 10.1007/s00586-021-06962-6
European Spine Journal volume 30, pages3525–3532 (2021)
The aim of this study was to determine inter- and intraobserver reliability of delta rod extension, and total rod length measured on digital x-rays in patients with early onset scoliosis (EOS) treated with magnetically controlled growing rods (MCGR). For the last decade, patients with EOS have been treated with MCGR. Replacement of MCGR relies heavily on the measurement done at every lengthening session. Only a few studies have looked at inter- and intraobserver reliability of rod lengthening, and none have used the delta extension before.
Assessing clinical trunk change with surface topography: anterior scoliosis correction as a model to evaluate curve progression
Alekhya Madiraju, Patrick J. Mulcahey, Patrick T. Knott, Allison R. Haas, Laury A. Cuddihy, M. Darryl Antonacci & Randal R. Betz
doi : 10.1007/s00586-021-06998-8
European Spine Journal volume 30, pages3533–3539 (2021)
Previous work has suggested that surface topography can be used for repeated measurements of deformity during curve monitoring following an initial radiograph. Changes in deformity during natural curve progression may be subtle. An important preemptive question to answer is whether topography can follow a large change in spine deformity, as in scoliosis correction. We assess the ability of surface topography to track the evolution of spine deformity during anterior scoliosis correction relative to traditional radiographs. Anterior scoliosis correction was chosen for this analysis because it changes the shape of the trunk without leaving a surgical scar and muscle atrophy along the posterior spine.
Halo-gravity traction followed by definitive fusion in severe early onset scoliosis: results of a trunk analysis based on biplanar 3D reconstructions
Anne-Laure Simon, Audrey Angelliaume, Adèle Happiette, Maxime Huneidi, Florence Julien-Marsollier & Brice Ilharreborde
doi : 10.1007/s00586-021-06986-y
European Spine Journal volume 30, pages3540–3549 (2021)
Definitive fusion can be considered in early onset scoliosis (EOS) around triradiate cartilage closure. Halo-gravity traction (HGT) is an old strategy that can help lengthen and balance the spine before fusion. The postoperative changes of the trunk have never been investigated to date with modern imaging. The goal of this study was to analyze the 3D radiological outcomes, and the associated pulmonary function, of a cohort of severe EOS patients treated by definitive posterior fusion prepared by HGT.

doi : 10.1007/s00586-021-06991-1
European Spine Journal volume 30, pages3647–3655 (2021)
Global alignment analysis is of upmost importance in adult spinal deformity patients (ASD). Numerous parameters exist in the literature to measure global alignment based upon C7 or T1. One common limitation of these parameters is that they neglect the cervical segment which is essential in spinal compensatory mechanisms and in horizontal gaze preservation. A recent stereoradiography analysis of asymptomatic subjects introduced a new 3D parameter (ODHA), defined as the angle between the vertical reference line and the line joining the odontoid tip (OD) to hip axis center (HA). Thus, the goal of this study was to analyze 3D global alignment of ASD patients using the new parameter odontoid hip axis angle and its relationship to other spinal parameters.
