Risk Factors and Three Radiological Predictor Models for the Progression of Proximal Junctional Kyphosis in Adult Degenerative Scoliosis Following Posterior Corrective Surgery: 113 Cases With 2-years Minimum Follow-Up
Abstract:Study design Retrospective cohort study. Objective To identify risk factors and predictive models for proximal junctional kyphosis (PJK) in a long-term follow-up of patients with adult degenerative scoliosis (ADS) following posterior corrective surgeries. Materials and Methods A consecutive 113 ADS patients undergoing posterior corrective surgery between January 2008 and April 2019 with minimum 2-year follow-up were included. All patients underwent preoperative, postoperative, and final follow-up by X-ray imag… Show more
