A survey was conducted to document the results of bracing and spinal fusion for scoliosis associated with osteogenesis imperfecta. Observations were made of 121 patients who underwent treatment by bracing or spinal fusion and who had been treated by 51 orthopaedic surgeons in. 14 countries. The average curve before bracing measured 43 degrees. The braces were ineffective in stopping progression even in small curves. We were unable to determine whether braces slowed the rate of progression of curvature. The average age at fusion was 15 years 7 months, the average curve before operation measured 74 degrees, and the average correction was 36 per cent. The high incidence ofcomplications was related to the size of the curve before spinal fusion,...
