The Evolution of the Harrington Instrumentation Technique in Scoliosis

JESSE H. DICKSON M.D.1 and PAUL R. HARRINGTON M.D.1

1 From Baylor College of Medicine, Houston

Four major modifications in the operative management of scoliosis, using Harrington instrumentation, are described with the results each modification brought about. The final regimen, used in 109 patients, included a dowel articular-process fusion and a lateral gutter fusion, as well as the Harrington apparatus and cast. A 65 per cent curve correction was obtained with the regimen.
