[Evaluation of operative corrigent degree of scoliosis by improved Cobb's angle degree of preoperative suspensive roentgenogram].
To achieve best operative result in correction of scoliosis, and avoid complications of the nerve system due to excess correction, we compared the statistical results of modified Cobb's degree of preoperative suspensive roentgenogram and operative corrigent degrees of 331 patients with scoliosis, including 219 with idiopathic scoliosis. The modified Cobb's degrees of the whole group was 20.15 +/- 9.41 in suspension, the operative corrigent degree was 35.34 +/- 13.05, and the operation-suspension difference was 14.62 +/- 11.02. Referring to idiopathic scoliosis, it was 21.79 +/- 8.39, 37.44 +/- 11.82, 15.58 +/- 9.91 respectively. And the statistacal study was performed according to scoliosis type, involved segments, curvature degree, and ages. The parameters were very helpful in the evaluation of currigent effect before operation.
