The goal of this observational study is to collect information about The Tether™ device in participants with progressive idiopathic scoliosis, Lenke Type 1 curves. The main purpose is to provide assessment of:
* ongoing safety
* probable benefits Participants who will receive The Tether™ during spine surgery will have to attend follow-up visits which are part of standard-of-care.
