      abstract     = {Friedreich's ataxia is a multisystem disorder with
                      scoliosis being the most common non-neurological
                      manifestation. While scoliosis surgery is typically
                      performed in adolescent, ambulatory patients, few data exist
                      on surgical outcomes in patients with advanced disease. We
                      present a 38-year-old woman with late-stage Friedreich's
                      ataxia and pronounced thoracolumbar scoliosis (Cobb angle
                      48°) causing severe pain and limited sitting tolerance.
                      After posterior corrective spondylodesis (T4-ilium), she
                      reported marked improvements in pain, sitting tolerance,
                      function, and quality of life in the SF-36 questionnaire.
                      This case highlights the potential for substantial clinical
                      and functional benefits from scoliosis surgery in patients
                      with advanced Friedreich's ataxia.},
