One-way self-expanding rods for early onset neuromuscular scoliosis: a two-year follow-up of an international cohort
The OWSER system provides stable correction of Cobb angle at two-year follow-up while allowing continued spinal growth in juvenile or early-onset NMS. Despite a notable complication rate, this technique offers a reliable treatment for NMS patients. We continue to follow-up these patients as long-term outcomes are necessary to confirm these encouraging results.
