Figure 1

Deformity correction from T3 to spinopelvic fixation using iliac screw in patients with neuromuscular scoliosis (NMS). (A) A 27-year-old male patient who diagnosed with cerebral palsy (spastic quadriplegia) showed NMS. The whole-spine anterior–posterior image showed 142° of scoliosis deformity, and pelvic obliquity was 28° as measured by pelvic tilting angle. (B) The immediate postoperative radiograph showed 88° of the Cobb’s angle (61.4% of correction rate) and 16° of the pelvic tilting angle (42.9% of correction rate from the spinopelvic fixation). (C) The 2-year follow-up Cobb angle was 85° and pelvic obliquity was 12°.
