Child surgery follow-up study for a spine bone shape issue
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This study follows children aged 3–10 who need surgery for a specific type of spine bone shape problem (hemivertebra). It aims to track outcomes after the operation and how well follow-up is completed.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child is between 3 and 10 years old
- Your child has a spine bone malformation called hemivertebra that needs surgery
- Your child has NOT had spine surgery before
- The planned operation is specifically the study’s type of bone malformation resection
- You can commit to regular medical follow-up visits after surgery
- You agree to store the study data (parents must not refuse data storage)

This trial looks at a specific surgical technique for teens whose scoliosis is severe enough that doctors have recommended surgery. It may help doctors compare approaches and improve outcomes after spinal fusion.
This study follows patients visiting a spine surgery department to better understand how care is provided and how patients do over time. It helps doctors improve treatment for spine problems like degeneration, deformity, injury, infection, or tumors.
This study looks at how well planned surgery corrects neck (cervical) deformities and how the results change over time. It mainly involves standard pre- and follow-up imaging and study questionnaires to compare clinical and X-ray outcomes.
This trial looks at how well minimally invasive back surgery works for adults with long-lasting spine deformities (like bending or uneven alignment). It aims to measure outcomes using questionnaires and spine X-ray measurements after treatment.
This study follows kids who have a surgery called anterior vertebral body tethering (AVBT) for growing-related, idiopathic scoliosis. It looks at how well the curve stays corrected over time and how the spine grows, which may help improve future care decisions.
This study looks at how 3D measurements and biomechanical (how the spine moves/loads) information can help guide decisions for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis surgery. It may help your team plan treatment more accurately when you’re scheduled for tethering or selective fusion.
