Missing the tethering window is huge as VBT has got to be the better option to fusion. It is much less invasive and leaves the spine flexible. The more that make the window the more info we will get into how wide the window can get in the future. Kids wont have to go through so long a bracing period if any and hopefully we wont end up with so many adults with untreated scoliosis! Seeing an orthopaedic surgeon for an evaluation is ikely to lead to a path to fusion because most don't know or want to know enough about VBT. In US you have more option to choose from the start who you see?
