Abstract EN

We report a case of scoliosis in a 12-year-old girl with Shprintzen–Goldberg syndrome.

She was diagnosed with Shprintzen–Goldberg syndrome at birth.

She was hospitalized for a surgical treatment because scoliosis gradually progressed.

Preoperative X-ray confirmed 80° symptomatic scoliosis in T10–L5.

Posterior correction and fusion were performed, and postoperative X-ray showed a correction to 43°in T10-L5.

Limited subcutaneous tissues and fragile bones must be considered when selecting the appropriate surgical method.

Accurate placement of a screw into thin pedicle is essential to obtain sufficient correction and fusion.

The use of a navigation system is recommended.
