Hemiepiphysiodesis is a potential method to treat idiopathic juvenile scoliosis early. The purpose of the present study was to investigate a mechanism of curve creation in the pig thoracic model of spinal hemiepiphysiodesis by determining whether the structure of the vertebral growth plate varied with distance from the stapled, concave side of the spine. The hypotheses were that the heights of the hypertrophic zone, hypertrophic cells, and disc would be decreased on the treated side of the treated level as compared with both an unstapled control level and the side opposite the staple.
