Curve elasticity was preoperatively measured so that the postoperative degree of correction could be predicted. Elasticity measurement was done with the patient on supine position using manual traction. The mean preoperative of the thoracic curves was 60,7° with the thoracolumbar and lumbar curves being 55,7° and 50,6° respectively. Using manual traction, the curves were found to correct down to 33,9° for the thoracic curves and 27,1° and 30,6° for the thoracolumbar and lumbar curves. In surgery, using Harrington distraction rods, further correction was obtained and the mean final curve was measured 22,2° for the thoracic, 19,0° for the thoracolumbar and 21,8° for the lumbar curves. Results showed that the magnitude of final correction was greater for the thoracolumbar curves (mean correction 65,8%) which were followed by the thoracic (mean correction 63,49%) and the lumbar curves (56,9%). In the female patient group (n=33) the magnitude of final correction was greater (67.0%) compared to the male group (n=13) where the mean correction was 53.8%.

Ο έλεγχος της ελαστικότητας έγινε με την μέθοδο της έλξεως του ασθενούς σε ύπτια θέση. Προεγχειρητικά ο μέσος όρος των θωρακικών κυρτωμάτων ήταν 60,7° των θωρακοοσφυϊκών και οσφυϊκών ήταν 55,7° και 50,0° αντίστοιχα. Με την έλξη τα κυρτώματα διορθώθηκαν, τα θωρακικά στις 33,9°, τα θωρακοοσφυϊκά στις 27,1° και τα οσφυϊκά στις 30,6°.
