4. AIS
-Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) is the most common form
of pediatric scoliosis. It occurs between the ages of 10 to 18.
-Surgical treatment is indicated to halt curve progression and
improve cosmetic appearance.
-The main goal of surgery is to achieve correction of deformity
including rotation, a fusion of the structural deformity of the
spine, which will prevent further progression.
5. Implant density is defined as number of implants per
spinal level fused. The ideal metal density in AIS is
unknown but would be the lowest metal density to achieve
satisfactory patient outcomes without increased
complications.
Implant Density
6. - Bilateral placement of pedicle screws at
every level has commonly been used.
- This method provides maximal rigidity to the scoliosis
construct.
-Disadvantages: Increased operative time
,risk of screw malposition and increased cost and blood
loss

8. Aim Of The Work:
The aim of this study is to evaluate short term results of Low density
implants in correction of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis
11. Family counseling
-AIS is primarily a cosmetic deformity
-Treatment was based on the desire to
change the shape of the back .
12. Preoperative Evaluation
-History taking :
-Personal history:.
-Evidence of maturation: included signs of puberty, onset of menarche.
-Presenting complaint
-History of present condition: the Age of onset, course and duration of
symptoms & evidence of maturation.
-Neurological symptoms
-Exclusion of non-idiopathic scoliosis criteria :
13. Physical Examination
-Assessment of shoulder balance
-Assessment of waist crease/pelvic obliquity
-Presence of any cutaneous abnormalities
-Indicators of maturity
-Gait
-Sensory and motor examination
-Reflex examination
-Forward Bending Test
21. Operative Details
-Anesthesia
-Bleeding Management
-Preoperative antibiotics
-Patient Positioning
-Neuromonitoring
-Surgical Technique:
All patients were treated by Correction derotation of curves by
low density implants construct less than 1.6 screw per level
22. Wide sub periosteal exposure of the
spine out to the tips of the transverse
processes
25. Confirmation of the location of the bilateral
vertebral pedicles, screws were placed in an
anatomic position
26. Selection of Fused Levels
The upper instrumented vertebra was
T4 if high right shoulder (with MT curve ) .
T3 if balanced shoulders .
T2 if the high left shoulder .
In Lenke 5 with lumbar curve, fusion stopped at T10 or T9.
The lower instrumented vertebra was the end vertebra if it was
touched by the CSVL and end+1 or end+2 if the end vertebra was not
touched by CSVL .
.
27. Release
-Removal of the interspinous ligaments and midline
ligamentum flavum of the apical regions of the
deformity.
-Costotransversectomy was done to increase spinal
flexibility and facilitates correction technique.
- Costoplasty was done for cases had huge rib hump.
31. Insertion of sub cutaneous
suction drain then wound
closure in layers.
32. Postoperative Management
-Day 0 : ICU & pain management
-Day1 : Patients were moved to the ward ,clinical
assessment and radiological imaging was done.
-Mobilization: Early mobilization out of bed was preferably
started the day after surgery.
-We used a postoperative dorsolumbar brace for 3 months
-Hospital discharge: Patients were discharged on 5th or 6th
day postoperatively.
33. Regular visits post-operative
-14th days: Stitches removal
-One month -3 months-6 months -1 year: Patients will be assessed
Functionally (SRS – 30 questionnaire) and Radiologically

52. The goals of surgical treatment
for AIS
-Arrest progression by achieving a solid fusion
-Correction of the deformity
-Improvement of the cosmetic appearance
-Improvement of the functional outcomes, physical and
psychosocial health
- Diminishing the development of low back pain, functional
impairment and cardiopulmonary compromise in adulthood
53. -In This prospective study 30 Patients diagnosed with AIS
treated by low density implants (less than 1.6 screw/level).
-They were evaluated by Whole spine Xrays AP standing ,
lateral & bending views .
-Measurement of cobb s angles in AP standing film pre
operative and postoperatively at 1,3,6,12 monthes.
54. -We found that the mean pre-operative Cobb's angle was 60.47,
the mean post-operative Cobb's was 19.1, the mean loss of
correction was 1.97 and the mean correction degree was 41.37
by using low density implants 1.23
-These correction rates compare equally well with other low
density correction studies cited in the literature.
55. -Advocates of pedicle screw constructs report that the advantages
for all pedicle screw constructs in AIS include improved coronal,
sagittal, and rotational correction, lower pseudarthrosis rates,
lower implant failures and fewer postoperative bracing
requirements.
-On the other hand studies of lower-density fixation, such as
skipped pedicle screw placement constructs, report this to be an
efficient and safe method in management of AIS
56. -All pedicle screws constructs have potential neurological,
vascular, and visceral complications which can result from
screw misplacement.
-Operative time , blood loss , risk and cost are decreased
with the use of low screw density constructs.
57. -Some surgeons were concerned regarding the potential
risks of LD constructs including implant failure, non-union
and increased revision rates.
-The lower safe limit of anchor density to maintain long-
term adequate correction remains undetermined.

59. Conclusion
-Implant density was not significantly related to coronal or axial
curve corrections.
-Low implant density with longer fusion level achieves
excellent curve correction and stability
-Operative time, blood loss, risk and cost are decreased with the
use of low screw density implants.
61. -Pre-operative planning by identification the type of curves is
the corner stone to obtain best correction.
-The use of low density implants achieves satisfactory correction
with less operative time, blood loss and complications.
-The use of monoaxial screws at periapical vertebrae and the use
of rod derotation technique are very useful to obtain good
correction by low density implants.
62. -Intraoperative neuromonitoring is essential to maintain
neurological integrity of the patients
-Intraoperative imaging at the end of surgery to assess
coronal and sagittal balance is very important.
-Further studies should include larger number of cases and
longer follow up period to detect more accurate results.
