Segmental range of motion of vertebral body tethering: an in-vitro analysis of single-tether, double-tether, and hybrid constructs
This study provided experimental data on individual segment motion under VBT. The findings indicate that VBT techniques preserve a significant portion of FL-EX and AR ROM for all segments. However, the tested VBT constructs provide stability for the spine in LB.
