Summary:STUDY DESIGN.Actuarial “survivorship” analysis OBJECTIVE.To define the incidence and cause of surgical revision five years after scoliosis surgery. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA.Data on contemporary revision surgery rates after idiopathic scoliosis surgery beyond the two years postoperatively in the adolescent and young adult population is limited. METHODS.Patients enrolled in a prospective, multicenter, idiopathic scoliosis surgical registry from 1995–2009 were reviewed. Any spine reoperation was defined as a “terminal event”. An actuarial survivorship analysis that adjusts for patients lost to follow up was performed to determine cumulative survival. Time intervals were defined as 0 to
