RESUMO

PURPOSE: Using patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs), this study was undertaken to determine how well patients with early onset scoliosis (EOS) fare in adulthood. METHODS: Among eight healthcare centers, 272 patients (≥ 18 years) surgically managed for EOS (≥ 5 years) completed the Scoliosis Research Society (SRS)-22r, Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy-10 (FACIT-Dyspnea-10), and Short Form (SF)-12. Functional and demographic data were collected. RESULTS: The response rate was 40% (108/272). EOS etiologies were congenital (45%), neuromuscular (20%), idiopathic (20%) syndromic (11%), and unknown (4%). All patients scored within normal limits on the FACIT-Dyspnea-10 pulmonary (no breathing aids, 78%; no oxygen, 92%). SF-12 physical health scores and most SRS-22r domains were significantly decreased (p < 0.05 and p < 0.001, respectively) compared with normative values. SF-12 and SRS-22r mental health scores (MHS) were lower than normative values (p < 0.05 and p < 0.02, respectively). Physical health PROMs varied between etiologies. Treatment varied by etiology. Patients with congenital EOS were half as likely to undergo definitive fusion. There was no difference between EOS etiologies in SF-12 MHS, with t scores being slightly lower than normative peers. CONCLUSION: Good long-term physical and social function and patient-reported quality of life were noted in surgically managed patients. Patients with idiopathic EOS physically outperformed those with other etiologies in objective and PROM categories but had similar MHS PROMs. Compared to normative values, EOS patients demonstrated decreased long-term physical capacity, slightly lower MHS, and preserved cardiopulmonary function. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level IV Case Series.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: The "law of diminishing returns" (LODR) in early-onset scoliosis (EOS) is well-known. We hypothesized that previously observed variations between constructs may be related to the lateral distance that each construct lies from the spine. We therefore sought to determine whether the curve magnitude improvement and spinal length gains for distraction-based constructs in EOS are positively correlated with the collinearity of the spine and the convex-sided implant on posteroanterior radiographs. METHODS: A prospectively-collected, multicenter EOS registry was queried for all patients who underwent non-fusion, distraction-based instrumentation surgery. Post-index radiographs were graded from 1 to 5 based on amount of overlap between the convex-sided rod and the apical vertebra. Grade 1: convex rod is lateral to convex-sided pedicle; Grade 2: overlaps the convex-sided pedicle; Grade 3: lies between pedicles; Grade 4: overlaps concave-sided pedicle; Grade 5: medial to concave-sided pedicle. ANOVA assessed the correlations between post-index overlap grade and change in (a) curve magnitude and (b) T1-T12 height. Multivariable regression modeling further assessed these associations. RESULTS: 284 patients met all selection criteria and were included. On ANOVA, post-index grade was associated with curve magnitude (p <0.001) and T1-12 height (p = 0.028) change. Better curve correction and height change were associated with higher grade. On regression modeling, curve correction (R = 0.574) and T1-T12 height change (R = 0.339) remained significantly associated with grade when controlling for time, anchor locations, age, underlying diagnosis, and pre-index curve magnitude. CONCLUSION: More apical overlap by the convex rod was associated with better spinal deformity control and improved height gain. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE III: Therapeutic.

RESUMO

While attempts to understand them better and treat them more effectively, early-onset deformities have gained great pace in the past few years. Large patient series with long follow-ups that would provide high levels of evidence are still almost non-existent. That there is no safe treatment algorithm defined and agreed upon for this patient population continues to pose a challenge for pediatric spine surgeons. In this review, authors who are well known for their research and experience in the treatment of early-onset scoliosis (EOS) have come together in order to answer those questions which are most frequently asked by other surgeons. The most basic eight questions in this field have been answered succinctly by these authors and a current overview is provided.
