Figure 2 Patient with neuromuscular kyphoscoliosis. A: Preoperative postero-anterior spinal radiograph shows a triple thoracic and lumbar scoliosis; B: Preoperative lateral spinal radiograph shows a thoracolumbar rotatory kyphosis producing positive global sagittal balance of the spine; C: Postero-anterior spinal radiograph shows excellent scoliosis correction and a balanced spine in the coronal plane; D: Lateral spinal radiograph shows restoration of thoracic kyphosis and a normal sagittal balance of the spine.
