Evaluation of postoperative fever after surgical correction of neuromuscular scoliosis: implication on management
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "European Spine Journal"
DOI: 10.1007/s00586-017-5456-1
Abstract: BackgroundScoliosis is a common deformity in patients with neuromuscular disorders which usually necessitates surgical correction. Patients with neuromuscular scoliosis are characterized by increased incidence of associated medical co-morbidities and higher postoperative complication rate; therefore, these… read more here.
