The study group comprised 12 (93%) female and 1 (7%) male patients. Six patients (46%) had an idiopathic form of scoliosis, in 4 (30%) it was congenital, and in 3 (23%) it was neuromuscular scoliosis. The patients' Cobb angles, thoracic kyphosis, T1-T12 and T1-S1 distance prior to and following the treatment were compared.\nResults\nThe mean Cobb angle before surgery was 53.780, whereas it decreased to 39.290 postoperatively (p &lt; 0.001). The mean thoracic kyphosis angle was 400 before and 29.790 after surgery (p &lt; 0.001). The mean T1-S1 distance was 32.14 cm before and 36.36 cm after surgery (p &lt; 0.001). The mean T1-T12 distance was 18.69 cm before and 20.64 cm after surgery (p &lt; 0.001).\nConclusion\nThe use of magnetic rods is an effective method of EOS treatment. It allows for spinal growth while managing the progression of the scoliosis.\nLevel of evidence\nLevel IV, therapeutic study.\nER -<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1016\/j.aott.2017.12.004","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,9,27]],"date-time":"2018-09-27T04:44:42Z","timestamp":1538023482000},"page":"438-441","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1016\/elsevier_cm_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Magnetically controlled growing rod in 13 patients with early-onset scoliosis and spinal improvement"],"prefix":"10.5152","volume":"52","author":[{"given":"Burak","family":"AKESEN","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Arma\u011fan","family":"Can ULUSALO\u011eLU","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Teoman","family":"AT\u0130C\u0130","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Enver","family":"IPEK","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"3111","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,2,6]]},"reference":[{"key":"10.1016\/j.aott.2017.12.004_bib1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"107","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jspd.2015.01.002","article-title":"EOS conensus statement","volume":"3","author":"Skaggs","year":"2015","journal-title":"Spine Deformity"},{"key":"10.1016\/j.aott.2017.12.004_bib2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1272","DOI":"10.2106\/JBJS.G.00184","article-title":"Pulmonary function following early thoracic fusion in non-neuromuscular scoliosis","volume":"90","author":"Karol","year":"2008","journal-title":"J\u00a0Bone Joint Surg Am"},{"key":"10.1016\/j.aott.2017.12.004_bib3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1851","DOI":"10.1097\/BRS.0000000000001077","article-title":"Magnetic expansion control system achieves cost savings compared to traditional growth rods: an economic analysis model","volume":"40","author":"Su","year":"2015","journal-title":"Spine"},{"year":"2014","series-title":"The MAGEC System for Spinal Lengthening in Children with Scoliosis.
