heal.abstractThis is a case of an adolescent with kyphoscoliosis due to congenital partially segmented vertebrae T12, L1, L2 who was treated operatively by a back-front-back, one stage operation. A 16 year old patient neurologically intact with a rounded gibbous in the lower thoracic region and a mild scoliotic element had no other congenital anomaly. His kyphotic deformity was 85 degrees measured with the Cobb method. Preoperatively, a CT and MRI scan of the spine was performed and a three-level anterolateral failure of segmentation in the thoracic spine was diagnosed without spinal dysraphism. The operation lasted 8 hours and the Moss-Miami anterior and posterior fixation systems were used for fusion from T10 to T4. It included initially posterior approach for transpendicular screw insertion, wedge resection of the posterior elemens followed by anterior approach (thoracotomy), osteotomy of the defected vertebrae, anterior correction and fusion T11 to L1 and final correction with rod placement posteriorly. The wake-up test was performed twice. The follow-up was 3 years. The postoperative correction of the kyphosis was 45% (42 degrees) and there was practically no loss of correction in the last follow-up. No complications were observed. Detailed preoperative assessment of the patients with congenital deformities is essential in order to establish the correct diagnosis and choose the proper treatment. Substantial kyphotic deformities require combined antero-posterior procedures.en
