Repeated Vertebral Column Resection (Re‐ <scp>VCR</scp> ) in Congenital Scoliosis With Curve Progression After Instrumentation Removal
Severe progression of deformity and trunk imbalance was frequently observed following instrumentation removal. The removal of instrumentation is not routinely recommended, and revision surgery employing Re-VCR frequently necessitates an extension of the fusion level. Satisfactory radiographic and clinical outcomes following Re-VCR were effectively maintained throughout the follow-up period, but great caution should be exercised during Re-VCR.
