when i read that someone thinks that having minimally invasive is for cosmetic reasons, i know that person has no idea what is involved in any scoliosis surgery....
going thru all the pain and trauma and risks of surgery for cosmetic reasons, in the case of what is needed for spinal surgery, makes no sense!
i knew someone who had full, open surgery on a bad knee years ago...he was in agony!! now, with arthroscopic knee surgery, people can avoid much of that pain...it is the same kind of idea with MI for scoli...avoid trauma to muscles and other tissue as much as is possible!
i usually avoid responding to talk of cosmetic reasons, but just don't like to see misinformation on MI for scoli perpetuated!
