Scoliosis surgery: Is complex and as for any other surgery it involves complications that are specific to the type of surgery and non-specific as seen in all surgeries. There are also short, medium and long term possible complications. Your best reference remains your surgeon and his or her team, setting clear goals will be essential for a good outcome for the surgery.
