Scoliosis

One noteworthy aspect of the sites above is their demonstration of a revolutionary surgical hardware system and technique developed by Dr. Dennis Crandall of Sonoran Spine in Phoenix, Arizona, USA.

This technique is identified by Campbell's Operative Orthopaedics as the "Crandall Method" for treating scoliosis, kyphosis, and spondylolisthesis.

Campbell's is a widely used resource for orthopedic surgery and "...an essential resource for the operative orthopedic surgeon." (— JAMA)
