    Abstract102 patients with scoliosis at stages II, III and IV aged from 7 to 18 years have been operated making use of Rodnianski'i-Gupalov endocorrector. Half of the patients had scoliosis at stage IV. The best results have been observed in the patients aged from 7 to 12 years at stage 11 and beginning of stage III of scoliosis (to 35 degrees). On the basis of the authors' surgical modifications used in 60 patients with scoliosis it is reported that in the children with scoliosis at stages III and IV it is advisable to use a one-plate endocorrector simultaneously combining mobilizing and stabilizing operations, which allows to spread and effectively use Rodnianski'i-Gupalov endocorrector in the patients aged below 18 years. The complications connected with disorders in the endocorrector construction as well as those due to general surgery have been pointed out. In most patients the complications have had no effect on the results of the treatment.
