A Systematic Review of Minimally Invasive Surgery for Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis

Abstract

Athanaseos Khan*

Adolescent idiopathic scoliosi is a complex, three-dimensional spinal deformity that occurs in children aged 10 to 18 without a known cause. AIS can lead to significant physical deformity, pain, and reduced quality of life. Traditional surgical treatments involve large incisions, extensive muscle dissection, and lengthy recovery times. However, minimally invasive surger has emerged as a promising alternative, offering reduced surgical trauma, faster recovery, and better cosmetic outcomes. This article provides a systematic review of the current literature on MIS for AIS, evaluating its efficacy, safety, and long-term outcomes.
