Scoliosis surgery is usually associated with severe bleeding. Various systemic strategies for blood conservation were applied, while the local techniques get less attention. The preemptive use of sufficient volume for proper tissue infiltration at two levels was applied. The local epinephrine may control bleeding without reliance upon deliberate hypotension, permitting a higher tissue perfusion.
