Seventeen participants (12 type 2, 5 type 3 with 4 of the 5 having lost the ability to ambulate) had motor function assessed using the Hammersmith Functional Motor Scale Expanded (HFMSE) performed pre-operatively and at least 3 months post-operatively. Independent t-tests determined group differences based on post-operative HFMSE changes, age, and baseline HFMSE scores.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Three participants had minimal HFMSE changes (\u00b12 points) representing stability (mean change\u200a=\u200a\u20130.7). Fourteen participants lost &gt;3 points, representing a clinically meaningful progressive change (mean change\u200a=\u200a\u201312.1, SD\u200a=\u200a8.9). No participant improved &gt;2 points. There were no age differences between stable and progressive groups ( p\u200a=\u200a0.278), but there were significant differences between baseline HFMSE ( p\u200a=\u200a0.006) and change scores ( p\u200a=\u200a0.001). Post-operative changes were permanent over time.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Scoliosis surgery has an immediate impact on function. Baseline HFMSE scores anticipate post-operative loss as higher motor function scores were associated with worse decline. Instrumentation that includes fixation to the pelvis reduces flexibility, limiting the ability for compensatory maneuvers.
