Does spinal deformity correction of non-dystrophic scoliosis in neurofibromatosis type I with one-stage posterior pedicle screw technique produce outcomes similar to adolescent idiopathic scoliosis?

Despite the differences in preoperative flexibilities and fusion strategies, non-dystrophic scoliosis in NF-1 can be treated with a satisfied correction rate and progression rate similar to comparable AIS by using the one-stage posterior pedicle screw technique. Dural ectasia or thin pedicles in non-dystrophic scoliosis could make pedicle screw placement challenging.
