    What type of spinal curvature?
    Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis

    Casting Details
    Plaster of paris body cast for 2 weeks post op then a fibre glass lightweight cast after that which I could take off for a shower every week! This was on for several months. On a stryer bed immediately post op for a week - novel experience! I gather these are no longer used.
