| Abstract | Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) is the most common form of spinal deformity in the younger population. The surgical management for these patients improved constantly over the last year and might not be comparable to modern treatment strategies. However, under this aspect the present investigation updates and discusses current evidence regarding the long-term outcome of the surgical management of AIS. All the clinical studies which evaluated the long-term outcomes of spinal fusion were considered. Level of evidence, clinical and radiological data, results of health-related questionnaires and surgery-associated complications during long-term follow-up, e.g., proximal and distal junctional kyphosis (PJK/DJK), and adjacent segment degeneration (ASD), are presented. Data concerning the following patient-reported outcomes measures were collected: Oswestry Disability Index (ODI), Scoliosis Research Society (SRS) Outcome Questionnaire, visual analogue scale (VAS), and short form-12 and 36 (SF-12/SF-36). Overall, data from 1115 patients were included. Of them, 324 underwent anterior and 791 posterior spinal fusion. One study focuses on a combined anterior/posterior fusions. The mean follow-up was 22.6 years (posterior fusion: 24.6 years, anterior fusion: 18.31 years). Seven studies focus on the thoracic segments, while 12 focus on the lumbar spine. Data on imaging was reported in 13 studies and those on PROMs in 15 investigations. In conclusion, there is low quality and paucity of long-term data on AIS. However, the long-term results of the implicated studies on AIS patients in this review appear to be satisfactory, although there are limitations in the outcome compared to healthy comparison cohorts. Adjacent degenerations appear to be the most common mechanical complication after long-segment fusions, despite their influence on the outcome remains unclear. With regard to pregnancies, there are slightly increased cesarean section rates, which could be explained by deviations in the sagittal profile. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
