 Correction surgery with a vertical expandable prosthetic titanium rib (VEPTR) for early-onset scoliosis (EOS) originally required opening wedge thoracotomy. However, opening wedge thoracotomy is frequently associated with postoperative pulmonary complications. We report two cases of correction surgery with a VEPTR without opening wedge thoracotomy. The results of the correction surgery for the spinal and thoracic deformities were favorable, and no postoperative pulmonary complications occurred in either case. Consequently, correction surgery with a VEPTR without opening wedge thoracotomy can serve as a useful option for the treatment of EOS.
