Description

A two-stage pull, then release, for harsh spine curves is judged by Pengfan Song, Chiying Du, Zhong Zhang, and Yi-Jian Liang in work dated 2025. Direct fix surgery for harsh scoliosis is risky, so a slow pull from head to pelvis comes first. That pull hits a ceiling, though. The team added a back release cut between two pull phases for fifty-four patients.

Stage one fixed about a third of the side curve. Stage two added a quarter more of the gain. In all, near half the side curve and over a third of the hump were fixed. Age, sex, and fused ribs shaped who gained most.
