case_images: Case 1: preoperative radiographs (from left to right: anteroposterior, side-bending, lateral). Anteroposterior radiograph shows an 83  left convex main thoracic curve, a 40  proximal thoracic curve, and a 68  lumbar curve. Side-bending radiograph shows 42% flexibility at the main thoracic curve. Lateral radiograph shows thoracic kyphosis of 27  and lumbar lordosis of 54 .

case_images: Thoracic kyphosis was 27 , and lumbar lordosis was 54  (Figure 1).
case_images: Case 1: postoperative radiographs (anteroposterior, lateral) 4 years after surgery show adequate curve correction and balance.

case_images: Case 2: preoperative radiographs (from left to right: anteroposterior, side-bending, lateral). Anteroposterior radiograph shows a major thoracic curve of 95  with a central sacral vertical line 1.5 cm to the left of the vertical plumb line. Side-bending radiograph shows 22% flexibility at the main thoracic curve. Lateral radiograph shows thoracic kyphosis of 60  and lumbar lordosis of 55 .

case_images: At age 10, the patient's scoliosis had progressed further, resulting in a major thoracic curve (95 ) with a central sacral vertical line 1.5 cm to the left of the vertical plumb line (Figure 3).
case_images: Case 2: radiographs (anteroposterior, lateral) 2 years after surgery show adequate curve correction and balance.
