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

open access: yesSpine 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.

Comparing the Prognostic Utility of Vertebral and Endplate Bone Quality Scores for Cage Subsidence Following Single‐Level Anterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion: A Retrospective Analysis

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, Volume 18, Issue 3, Page 489-499, March 2026.
MRI‐derived bone quality metrics are reliable predictors of cage subsidence following ACDF. Their implementation may be used to guide surgical planning and improve outcomes. ABSTRACT Objective Cage subsidence following anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) is linked with poor bone quality.
