title: [Pre- and post-operative evaluation of biologic parameters in patients with scoliosis (author's transl)].
abstract: The authors had studied biological parameters of respiratory and muscle function in patients effected by scoliosis before and after surgical treatment according to Harrington method, in order to evaluate a correlation with the anatomical deviations. The study has been led by spirometric and electromyographic tests, which have show a real correspondence between the anatomical situation and the considered parameters before and after surgical treatment, and emphasizing an improvement of respiratory and muscle function.
