Abstract
A technique of combined anterior and posterior surgery for correction of severe thoracic lordosis with the restoration of normal kyphosis is described. The results in three patients are presented. Preliminary results suggest that this is a valid procedure for obtaining a normal thoracic kyphosis, and that correction of thoracic lordosis may result in improved pulmonary function.Entities:
