Thoracolumbar spine CTAs of children with AIS were reviewed. We measured the following relationships to the ureters lateral-most aspect of vertebral body, anterior psoas at intervertebral disc/vertebral body levels, and lateral psoas at vertebral body level. Spine level at which the renal arteries originated from the aorta was identified. Distance from origin to corresponding vertebral body/intervertebral disc also was measured. Forty-one girls and seven boys (mean age 12years, range 7-18) were analyzed. Scoliosis lumbar convexity was left 94% and right 6%. From L1 to L4, ureter was identified within 1-2cm of vertebral body. Distance between ureter and vertebral body and ureter and anterior psoas at intervertebral disc/vertebral body levels was less on left vs. right from L1 to L4 (p < 0.0001). Distance between ureter and lateral psoas was less on left vs. right from L1 to L2 (p = 0.0205; p = 0.0132) and greater on left vs. right from L3 to L4 (p = 0.0022; p = 0.0076). Renal artery originated at L1/L2 in > 50%. There was no difference in distance from renal artery origin to vertebral body/intervertebral disc (p = 0.4764). Ureteral injury is a potentially morbid complication of anterior spine surgery. Injury can occur secondary to disrupted blood supply and mechanical tissue damage. Surgeons must clearly understand the juxta-spinal anatomy to limit dissection and modify retraction to reduce risk. Level IV.
