Check out these xrays
1- after brace and casting but before surgery. His curve was 90 degrees and was affecting his organs
2- after magec rod placement. Significantly straighter and the thicker part is where they used a magnetic machine (outside his body every 3 months) to extend the rods to grow with him.Β 
3- after this surgery swapping out to traditional rods and a full spinal fusion. Slightly straighter than the magec rods and possibly his last spine surgery! All the little lines are wires used to monitor him during and after surgery.
