Techniques for Apical Correction in Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis [1:41:11]
Published on September 10, 2026
Surgical Demonstration
In this session, Julian Leong and Stephan Hemmer present contemporary techniques for apical correction in Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis (AIS). Through case discussions and a live surgical demonstration, they explore direct vertebral derotation, differential rod bending, anterior growth arrest, sublaminar band technology, and pedicle screw strategies. The faculty shares practical decision-making for achieving optimal coronal, sagittal, and rotational correction while addressing common challenges in scoliosis surgery. An essential session for spine surgeons seeking advanced insights into modern AIS deformity correction.
