Incidence, Risk Factors, and Prevention Strategy for Proximal Junctional Kyphosis in Adult Spinal Deformity Surgery

Spine Surgery and Related Research, 2021
Introduction: Proximal junctional kyphosis (PJK) is an acute complication of adult spinal deformity (ASD) surgery and may require re-operation because of proximal junctional failure (PJF). PJK causes and prevention strategies remain unknown.

Sarcopenia and osteopenia are independent risk factors for proximal junctional disease after posterior lumbar fusion: Results of a retrospective study

Journal of Craniovertebral Junction and Spine, 2023
Study Design: This was a retrospective study. Objective: Since a better understanding of modifiable risk factors for proximal junctional disease (PJD) may lead to improved postoperative outcomes and less need of revision surgery, the aim of the present ...

Risk assessment and management options for proximal junctional kyphosis: A systematic review

Journal of Orthopaedic Reports
Purpose: Proximal junctional kyphosis (PJK) is an alignment loss above an instrumented vertebra. We hypothesize that careful pre-operative consideration of major procedures and risk factors associated with development of PJK will minimize the likelihood ...
