Our 14 yo from Indiana who had kyphosis surgery last friday is in the air now flying home from RDU. She did great with another 2+ inches in height and a beautiful new posture!
Saw 17 yo w 78 degree kyphosis this morning for second opinion regarding need for anterior posterior surgery. I think she could do great w posterior approach only w osteotomies. I thing the young lady and her parents were relieved!
