The trajectory of recovery may be accelerated by the application of enhanced recovery principles.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Materials and methods: &lt;/strong&gt;Inclusion criteria were operative patients with ASD older than 18 years with complete baseline, 90 days perioperative, and 2Y postoperative data. We assessed differences in baseline demographics, surgical details, baseline health-related quality of life (HRQL), and surgical outcomes between ERAS+ and ERAS- patients. Outcomes included adverse events, reoperations, and radiographic parameters such as sacral slope, pelvic tilt, pelvic incidence-lumbar lordosis mismatch, sagittal vertical axis, lumbar lordosis, T2 to T12 kyphosis, and maximum Cobb angle. In addition, HRQL measures included the physical component summary, Oswestry Disability Index, Neck Disability Index, EuroQol 5 dimensions, Scoliosis Research Society Questionnaire 22r total and domain scores, Numeric Pain Rating Scale-back, and Numeric Pain Rating Scale-leg. We used multivariable logistic regression and analysis of covariance to adjust for confounding.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;A total of 471 patients with ASD met the inclusion criteria, with 59 designated ERAS+. Those individuals with ERAS+ were older (64.1 ± 13.0 vs. 58.0 ± 16.0; P = 0.005), had a higher Charlson Comorbidity Index, (2.4 ± 1.8 vs. 1.4 ± 1.6; P &lt; 0.001), and exhibited a higher modified ASD frailty index (8.2 ± 5.4 vs. 6.3 ± 4.9; P = 0.019). The adjusted analysis demonstrated the ERAS+ cohort demonstrated a lower likelihood of overall reoperations (Odds ratio (OR): 0.3; 95% CI: 0.13-0.89), and a lower likelihood of overall adverse events (OR: 0.4; 95% CI: 0.19-0.93). ERAS+ was more likely to achieve the minimal clinically important difference in the Scoliosis Research Society Questionnaire 22r total scores at 6 months (6M; OR: 3.1; 95% CI: 1.2-8.4), self-image domain at 6M (OR: 9.0; 95% CI: 1.6-50.0), in the pain domain at 6M (OR: 3.5; 95% CI: 1.01-11.9) and 1 year postoperatively (OR: 2.6; 95% CI: 1.03-6.7), and in the SF-36's physical component summary (PCS) scores at 1 year (OR: 2.1; 95% CI: 1.05-4.2). No other statistically significant differences in HRQL were observed at the remaining time points (P &gt; 0.05).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;Our work is the first to evaluate HRQL metrics and complications over 2Y following ASD correction with ERAS.

In these cases, it remains unknown whether the curve will progress or remain stable.</p><p><strong>Materials and methods: </strong>Adolescent and juvenile idiopathic scoliosis patients in a multicenter registry with ≥2-year-follow-up after VBT were reviewed. Broken tethers were listed as postoperative complications and identified by increased screw divergence of >5 degrees on serial radiographs. Revision procedures and curve magnitude at subsequent visits were recorded.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>Of 186 patients who qualified for inclusion, 84 (45.2%) patients with tether breakage were identified with a mean age at VBT of 12.4±1.4 years and mean curve magnitude at index procedure of 51.8±8.1 degrees. Tether breakage occurred at a mean of 30.3±11.8 months and mean curve of 33.9±13.2 degrees. Twelve patients (12/84, 14.5%) underwent 13 revision procedures after tether breakage, including six tether revisions and seven conversions to fusion. All tether revisions occurred within 5 months of breakage identification. No patients with curves <35 degrees after breakage underwent revision. Revision rate was greatest in skeletally immature (Risser 0-3) patients with curves ≥35 degrees at time of breakage (Risser 0-3: 9/17, 53% vs. Risser 4-5: 3/23, 13%, P =0.01). Curves increased by 3.1 and 3.7 degrees in the first and second year, respectively. By 2 years, 15/30 (50%) progressed >5 degrees and 8/30 (26.7%) progressed >10 degrees. Overall, 66.7% (40/60) reached a curve magnitude >35 degrees at their latest follow-up, and 14/60 (23.3%) reached a curve magnitude >45 degrees.
