    ObjectiveTo summarize the current development of the correction of severe and rigid scoliosis.MethodsRecent literature concerning the correction of severe and rigid scoliosis at home and abroad was extensively reviewed, and current developments of the correction of severe and rigid scoliosis were summarized.ResultsThe correction of severe and rigid scoliosis shows developments as follows: the application of Halo-gravity traction increase and Halo-femoral traction is applied in posterior correction surgery. Fixation and correction technique with all pedicle screws was gradually popularized. The applications of posterior vertebral column resection, one-stage anterior and posterior surgery, and posterior-only correction surgery increase.ConclusionThe developments of all kinds of correction techniques improve the correction effects of severe and rigid scoliosis. Now there is no standardized treatment protocol for severe and rigid scoliosis. Greater development can be expected in the future
