Relook into the Risk Factors of Proximal Junctional Kyphosis in Early Onset Scoliosis Patients: Does the Location of Upper Instrumented Vertebra in Relation to the Sagittal Apex Matter?

Orthopaedic Surgery, 2022
Objective Growing rods surgery is the mainstay of treatment for early‐onset scoliosis (EOS) while proximal junctional kyphosis (PJK) is one of the most commonly reported postoperative complications.

Proximal Junctional Kyphosis Prevention Strategies: A Video Technique Guide [PDF]

Operative Neurosurgery, 2017
Abstract BACKGROUND: Proximal junctional kyphosis (PJK) is a well-recognized complication in patients undergoing posterior instrumented fusion procedures for adult spinal deformity. Strategies that reduce rates of PJK have the potential to improve the safety of these operations and decrease cost by eliminating the ...

Repeated Vertebral Column Resection (Re‐VCR) in Congenital Scoliosis With Curve Progression After Instrumentation Removal

Orthopaedic Surgery, Volume 17, Issue 12, Page 3412-3419, December 2025.
The average extension of fusion level for repeated vertebral column resection (Re‐VCR) was 5.4 in total and the average correction rates of the Cobb angle of the main curve and kyphosis were 59.5% and 53.7%. Satisfactory radiographic and clinical outcomes after Re‐VCR could be achieved, but great care should be taken. ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the

Impact of Sagittal Reference Lines on Predicting Distal Junctional Kyphosis in Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis

Orthopaedic Surgery, Volume 17, Issue 11, Page 3222-3229, November 2025.
This study investigated the effectiveness of sagittal stable vertebra (SSV) determined by different sagittal reference lines in predicting the risk of postoperative distal junctional kyphosis (DJK) in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) patients who underwent posterior spinal fusion (PSF) with the lowest instrumented vertebra (LIV) at or above L1 ...

Proximal junctional kyphosis in Lenke 5C adolescent idiopathic scoliosis after selective posterior thoracolumbar/lumbar fusion: risk factors and predictive index

Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research
Background Although several studies have reported that selective posterior thoracolumbar/lumbar (TL/L) fusion can yield satisfactory results in Lenke 5C adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS), the proximal junctional kyphosis (PJK) is still a common ...

Hybrid Posterior Fixation Incorporating Cervical Facet Fixation for the Treatment of Proximal Junctional Failure

Journal of Orthopaedic Case Reports
Introduction: Proximal junctional kyphosis (PJK) and proximal junctional failure (PJF) are well-recognized complications following long thoracolumbar fusion constructs and frequently require complex revision surgery.

Lateral Column Realignment Combined With Anterior Longitudinal Ligament Release Versus Three‐Column Osteotomy in the Treatment of Thoracolumbar Kyphosis in Septuagenarians: A Retrospective Comparative Cohort Study

Orthopaedic Surgery, Volume 17, Issue 11, Page 3241-3251, November 2025.
Navigation‐assisted LCR‐A plus PCO/PSF offers effective correction of adult thoracolumbar kyphosis secondary to OVF. Compared with 3CO, LCR‐A demonstrated lower blood loss, shorter operative time, and fewer complications. Thus, LCR‐A may serve as a safer and less invasive alternative for elderly patients. ABSTRACT Objective Adult thoracolumbar kyphosis
