[Orthopedic reduction of scoliosis by Maguelone's technic. Indications and first results].
The authors describe an original technique for rapid closed reduction of scoliosis (Maguelone technique). It is based on mild distraction in suspension associated with derotation without pressure points. It is painless and efficient. In 50 cases it was followed by a conservative treatment using plaster casts. In 15 other cases it was the first stage of a surgical treatment of the deformity.
