In 50 patients with dysplastic scoliosis (mobile deformity of III-IV degree) that underwent dorsal correction and spine fixation using Cotrel-Dubousset the mean postoperative correction of primary arch was equal 59.8%. Instrumental correction exceeded natural spine mobility average by 1.5 times. No significant segmental vertebrae derotation after surgical treatment was obtained. Postoperatively correct anatomic correlations of body and disk height on convex and concave deformity sides were restored. In further it was the determinant factor in preserving of achieved correction. The score system for the assessment of surgical scoliotic deformity correction was suggested. It allows presenting complex standardized characteristic of surgical treatment quality.
