Correction of the spine deviates nearly 60 degrees

Fresh Koryn McFadden stands in front of the porch. It was hard for anyone to know that she had just undergone an 8-hour operation to correct a section of her spine that was so bent that it pushed her heart to the other half of her chest.

Koryn McFadden, 18, of England, has for many years suffered from scoliosis - the disease that caused her spine to shift 58.6 degrees to the left. The girl was found sick two and a half years ago, after a car accident.

But two months ago, X-ray films showed that the condition was so severe that her heart was deviated to the right to over 7 cm.

The doctor asked the surgery girl to immediately correct the curved bone, before it pressed on the heart muscle, causing the main blood vessels to be pinched. A month later, the next shot showed that Koryn's " pendulum " heart had moved to the left chest, allowing the doctor the opportunity to perform surgery immediately.

During the operation on June 17, doctors successfully inserted two titanium rods 40 cm long and 10 metal pins into the spine of the girl. The surgery also made Koryn 2 cm taller.

" I feel like I'm a few inches taller, and my friends all like my new body. They say I look much smarter ," the girl said happily about the turning point of her life.

Koryn also feels quick to recover and can return to work as a trainee nurse in the next 3 months. Before this surgery, she often suffered from pain and had to lie on a hospital bed.
