Harrington rod information


Harrington rods used in spinal fusion

The Harrington rod (or Harrington implant) is a stainless steel surgical device.[1] Historically, this rod was implanted along the spinal column to treat, among other conditions, a lateral or coronal-plane curvature of the spine, or scoliosis. Up to one million people had Harrington rods implanted for scoliosis between the early 1960s and the late 1990s.
