Abstract
These early results show satisfactory frontal Cobb curve reduction and maintenance of spinal growth after using a new hybrid concept of a single magnetic growth rod and contralateral apical control sliding rods. A single magnetic growth rod in this combination may work equally well as traditional or dual magnetic growth rods. This new concept may represent a significant gain in both cost-effectiveness of growth rod treatment and 3D correction in EOS.
