Abstract
Anterior approaches for scoliosis are now frequent. Versatility in exposure is such that any segment may be approached from either side without significant difficulty or morbidity. Anterior spine surgery is an addition to the modern armamentarium by improving correction, insuring fusions, and allowing better alignment of the scoliotic spine. In the 1990s, scoliosis patients are beneficiaries of innovators of safe and sound anterior spine surgical practice.
