Complications of dual growing rod with all-pedicle screw instrumentation in the treatment of early-onset scoliosis.

Our findings suggest that in settings without access to magnetically controlled growing rods, dual growing rods with all-pedicle screw instrumentation is still a viable treatment strategy with comparable results and complications. The most common complications are infection and PJK, with the latter being associated with a larger pre-operative thoracic kyphosis.
