Patients with neuromuscular scoliosis (NMS) who undergo posterior spinal fusion (PSF) often have long, protracted hospital stays because of numerous comorbidities. Coordinated perioperative pathways can reduce length of hospitalization (LOH) without increasing complications; however, a subset of patients may not be suited to rapid mobilization and early discharge. ⋯ Therapeutic Level III.

Finite element analysis. ⋯ The greater mechanical demand on the posterior rods in the lower lumbar spine in the major failure cohort further emphasizes the importance of proper sagittal alignment. This finite element analysis validates the classification of lumbopelvic fixation failure.
