Surgical results with the use of Silicated Calcium Phosphate (SiCaP) as bone graft substitute in Posterior Spinal Fusion (PSF) for Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis (AIS).

SiCaP facilitated early bony consolidation in operated cohort of AIS patients treated by PSF. There were no inflammatory reaction or other adverse effects associated with its use. SiCaP is a safe alternative to autologous iliac crest bone graft with reduced complications, morbidity, faster recovery and similar infection/fusion rates reported in the literature.
