Introduction

Traditionally correction of idiopathic paediatric scoliosis is done by hybrid fixation. This involves a judicious combination of mono-axial and poly-axial screw constructs. This has inherent perceived advantages with better deformity correction and maintaining alignment without loss of correction over time.

Study design

Single centre retrospective review of prospective collected data on the radiological analysis of idiopathic paediatric scoliosis corrections. The study compared hybrid screw constructs (poly-axial & mono-axial) to all poly-axial screw constructs over 28 months.
