Реферат: ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE This invention relates to an appliance for correction of spinal curvatures, performed in course of treatment by means of surgical struts. The appliance has the form of a double-arm lever making it possible to extend the effective length of the strut placed in the patient's body. One arm of said lever ends with a holder for clamping the hook of the strut, the other arm being provided with a screw adjusting the spacing of the arms and the displacement of the hook along the strut. This other arm is split longitudinally, one limb being provided with a tapped hole wherein said adjusting screw operates, whereas the other limb is provided with a clearance hole, and with a pivot wherein the link mechanism and the pointer of a dynamometer are mounted. The side surface of this other arm carries a scale over which the tip of the pointer travels indicating the value of the force being applied to the operator.
