In this retrospective cohort study, 4 paraplegic children with spinal deformity after intraspinal tumors and 4 children with neuromuscular diseases were compared. VEPTR treatment was able to considerably reduce the main scoliotic curve in both patient groups (41 vs. 40%). However, the tumor group constantly showed more severe curve progression over time and less favorable pelvic obliquity control. In conclusion, bilateral VEPTR can be expected to be less satisfying in children with tumors."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1159/000487810"],["dc.identifier.pmid","29635228"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/57556"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.status","final"],["dc.relation.eissn","1423-0305"],["dc.title","Surgical Treatment of Spinal Deformities in Young Paraplegic Children with Intraspinal Tumors"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","unknown"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]
