The Evaluation, Prevention, and Management of Proximal Junctional Kyphosis and Failure

Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons
Proximal junctional kyphosis (PJK) occurs commonly after surgery for adult spinal deformity. PJK exists on a spectrum, from a pure radiographic diagnosis to those patients with more severe deformity leading to notable pain, morbidity, and neurologic compromise requiring revision surgery—often described as proximal junctional failure (PJF).

Distinct Mechanisms of Proximal Junctional Kyphosis and Their Clinical Implications

Spine
Study Design. Retrospective cohort study. Objectives. In patients undergoing adult spinal deformity (ASD) surgery, we sought to: (1) describe mechanisms of proximal junctional kyphosis/failure (PJK/F), and (2) compare time-to-diagnosis,

Adjacent Level Disease and Proximal Junctional Kyphosis

2016
Adjacent segment disease following lumbar spinal fusion refers to any symptomatic pathology occurring rostral or caudal to a previous fusion. The exact etiology of adjacent segment disease is controversial with evidence implicating increased biomechanical forces on the neighboring functional segmental unit as well as an intrinsic degenerative ...

Tension Parameters of Junctional Tethers in Proximal Junction Kyphosis: A Cadaveric Biomechanical Study

World Neurosurgery
Proximal junctional failure following surgical correction for adult spinal deformity significantly impacts quality of life and increases the economic burden of treating underlying spinal deformity. The objective of this cadaver study was to determine optimal tension parameters in junctional tethers for proximal junctional kyphosis prevention.Cadaveric ...
