One-Time surgery aims to straighten growing spines

NCT ID NCT07429656

Summary

This study is testing a new surgical technique called Active Apex Correction (APC) for young children with progressive, severe scoliosis. The goal is to correct the spinal curve and control its worsening while still allowing the child's spine to grow normally, potentially avoiding the need for multiple repeat surgeries. Researchers will measure how well the spine straightens, how much it grows, and track any complications in 15 children under 10 years old.
