Tiivistelmä

Conclusion. PL resection is technically more demanding and slightly faster method for hemivertebral resection. It has nearly as good correction rate as the AP-method but more minor complications. Hemivertebrectomy seems to provide a controllable untethering effect in patients with a symptomatic tethered cord.
