Mechanical Performance of Traditional Distraction-Based Dual Growing Rod Constructs

Growing rod constructs are an important contribution in the treatment of children with early onset scoliosis even though these devices experience high rates of rod fracture. The mechanical performance of traditional, distraction-based dual growing rod constructs is not well understood, and mechanical models for predicting device performance are limited.
