Operative treatment of neuropathic pelvic obliquity.

Neuropathic fixed pelvic obliquity remains an important orthopedic problem. The three known methods for operative correction of this deformity are described. The combined VDS and Harrington method is described in this paper, along with its advantages. The combined operation corrects kyphosis, lordosis, and scoliosis and offers immediate stability of the spine with good correction of the fixed pelvic obliquity.
