ARTICLE HIGHLIGHTS
Research background

Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis remains a main problem in orthopedics due to its high incidence, high risk, and high cost.

Research motivation

Ideal correction of scoliosis should be three-dimensional. However, many techniques failed to achieve three-dimensional correction.

Research objectives

We developed a novel set of tools to aid three-dimensional correction of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis.

Research methods

We performed finite element and biomechanical test for the tools, and evaluated its radiological, neurological and functional outcomes in a randomized clinical trial to ensure its efficacy and safety.

Research results

The tools developed passed the finite element analysis and biomechanical test as well as clinical study.

Research conclusions

We developed a novel set of tools to aid three-dimensional correction of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis.

Research perspectives

A simplification of the tools.
