Scoliosis in Patients with Aortic Coarctation and Patent Ductus Arteriosus: Does Standard Posterolateral Thoracotomy Play a Role in the Development of the Lateral Curve of the Spine
Pediatric Cardiology, 07/16/09

The rate of single thoracic and the rate of left-sided thoracic curves in patients after thoracotomy is higher than in nonoperated patients or in those with idiopathic scoliosis.
