Localised inter- and intra-vertebral rotation occurs between 6 and 24 months after TASF, both within the instrumented spinal segments and in the adjacent un-instrumented levels of the adolescent spine. The lack of measurable en-bloc movement of the fused segment relative to the adjacent un-instrumented levels suggests that overall stability of the instrumented construct is achieved, however the vertebrae within the fusion mass continue to adapt and remodel, resulting in ongoing local anatomical and biomechanical changes in the adolescent spine.
