After instrumental correction of spinal deformity on the background of the lateral hemivertebrae scoliosis angle ranged from 0 to 6°. The degree of correction ranged from 94 to 100%. After extirpation of the posterolateral hemivertebrae the residual angle of scoliotic deformity ranged from 0 to 4° (average 2,5°), the degree of correction ranged from 95 to 100%, the kyphotic angle of the component from 9 to -6° (average 2,2°).
