Adult Scoliosis | 6 | 30% | 10 – 62% |
Idiopathic Scoliosis | 7 | 8,6% | 0 – 37%* |
Congenital Scoliosis | 3 | 3% | 0 – 9% |
- The pooled data [122] seems incomplete in comparison to the total rate of complications, because in the various papers major complications were not always shown. Therefore, a statistical analysis does not make sense. However, this table shows the wide range of variability of major complications in the different entities. * In the IS group one study on fusion down to the pelvis [69] showed the highest rate of major complications (37%), whilst the range in the IS group, excluding this paper was 0 – 9,5%.
