Abstract

This is a prospective study of early onset scoliosis (EOS) patients treated with the magnetically controlled growing rod (MCGR) at up to 6 years follow-up with particular attention to the MCGR graduates at final surgery. Deformity control is consistent as is spine length gain. Further correction at final surgery for graduates are limited.
