This patient is a 34-year-old female with idiopathic scoliosis who previously had spinal fusion with Luque instrumentation at age 13. The Luque rod had broken and was protruding from her skin. She now has a residual thoracic curve of over 86 degrees without a solid fusion. The surgery involved removing the failed hardware, performing multiple osteotomies, installing new segmental spinal instrumentation from T2 to the sacrum with pelvic fixation, and posterior spinal fusion. Post-operatively, the patient was perfectly balanced in the sagittal and coronal planes.
