Figure 1

A 14-year-old girl with idiopathic scoliosis and the Lenke classification was 1C+. A-B: AP radiographs before treatment showing right thoracic scoliosis measured 92°. C:Bending films showed right thoracic scoliosis corrected to 77°. D:The right thoracic curve correction obtained with Halo-femoral traction treatment was 40.2%. E-F:The major curve measured 35° after posterior spinal fusion and the correction rate was 62%. G-H: AP and lateral radiographs at 20-month follow-up showed solid spinal fusion with a 37° right thoracic curve.
