Immune response to spinal fusion in scoliosis
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
This study looks at how the immune system reacts to spinal fusion surgery in people with scoliosis (a curved spine). It compares people with two types of scoliosis to see if there are differences that could help improve care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are having or have had spinal fusion surgery (a procedure that fuses the spine bones together).
- You have either idiopathic scoliosis (curved spine with no known cause) or neuromuscular scoliosis (curved spine caused by a nerve or muscle condition).
- You are not taking immune-suppressing drugs (like some arthritis or cancer medications).
- You are not on long-term steroid treatment.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study compares two types of fluids—one made from donated human blood plasma and one a standard salt-solution—given during scoliosis surgery in children and teenagers. The goal is to see which fluid helps patients recover safely and with fewer complications.
This study tests whether giving iron supplements before spinal fusion surgery can help kids with low iron levels. It aims to understand iron deficiency in young people with scoliosis and improve their surgical outcomes.
This study looks at how well a specific neck surgery (posterior cervical fusion using added spacers) works for people with long-standing, non-traumatic neck wear-and-tear problems. It will track outcomes using symptoms and imaging to see if the surgery improves function and healing.
This study tests a rehabilitation program for teens and young adults who had spinal fusion surgery for scoliosis 6 months to 3 years ago. The program aims to improve recovery and function.
This study compares two types of spine surgery (ALIF or XLIF) for one spinal level, and tests how well the bones fuse when a specific bone-forming product is used. It also looks at how patients feel and function after surgery.
This trial looks at how certain markers of bone and muscle health might predict complications after spinal surgery. It could help doctors better understand which patients are at risk and improve recovery.
