Anterior endoscopic scoliosis surgery has the potential advantage of saving levels fused without the morbidity of open thoracotomy. The study aim was to investigate radiological changes during the first 3 years following surgery.\udAnterior endoscopic surgery is effective in restoring both sagittal and coronal balance. However, there is small loss of correction in the structural curve. There was a significant complication rate. We now use a 5.5mm rod and femoral head allograft to avoid rod fracture
