| Core Tip |
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) patients develop progressive spinal deformity after loss of independent ambulation. There is limited data on the effect of spinal deformity correction on long-term functional outcomes or satisfaction in DMD patients. This retrospective cohort study investigated long-term functional outcomes following spinal deformity correction in DMD patients, reporting clinical, surgical, radiographic and functional outcomes. All patients were satisfied with surgical outcomes at long-term follow-up. Surgical correction of spinal deformity can have favourable long-term effects on quality of life (QoL) in DMD patients. These results support surgical correction of spinal deformity to improve long-term QoL in DMD patients with spinal deformity. |
