Disclosured is a straightening and supporting device for the spinal column in the surgical treatment of scoliotic diseases, a device which is removed after the spinal column has healed. The device comprises a rod-shaped supporting member at least the length of the spinal column area to be treated and wires bearing on the ends of the supporting member and exerting a straightening and supporting effect on the vertebrae of the spinal column. Additionally, attachment members with loops, some of which being resilient, are arranged to the vertebrae, the wires being capable of sliding in the loops.
