In Reply: Bracing for Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis in Practice Today In Response: I am writing in response to “Bracing for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis in practice today”, published
TO THE
EDITOR
in Volume 31 Number 1 Supplement pages S53-60 January/February 2011. Paul D. Sponseller, MD, presented a thoughtful and comprehensive review of brace treatment for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis. I learned a lot about bracing treatment for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis from this article. However, there were errors of figures and figure legends. The figure legends of figures 2 and 3 should be exchanged. The
figure 2 is a Boston brace and the figure 3 is a Milwaukee cervicothoracic lumbosacral orthosis. The Editors and Author could consider revising the figure legends to make this article more perfect.
