Radiological Analysis of Thoracolumbar Junctional Degenerative Kyphosis in Patients with Lumbar Degenerative Kyphosis

Chinese Medical Journal, 2017
Background: Thoracolumbar junction (TLJ) is the transitional area between the lower thoracic spine and the upper lumbar spine. Vertebral compression fractures and proximal junctional kyphosis following spine surgery often occur in this area.

Next generation of growth-sparing techniques: preliminary clinical results of a magnetically controlled growing rod in 14 patients [PDF]

, 2012
Session 3A - Early Onset Scoliosis: Paper no. 33SUMMARY: Growth-sparing techniques are commonly used for the treatment of progressive EOS. The standard growing rod (GR) technique requires multiple surgeries for lengthening.

The Relationship Between Postoperative Variation of Adjacent Segment Three‐Dimensional Kinematics and Postoperative PI‐LL in Patients With Degenerative Lumbar Scoliosis After Short Segment Fixation

Orthopaedic Surgery, Volume 17, Issue 12, Page 3342-3353, December 2025.
In summary, we collected the postoperative variation of motion pattern at the adjacent segment in patients with DLS over short‐term follow‐up. As a result, the reduction of coupled motion in adjacent segments indicates an improved balance of the spine compared to before the surgery.

Biomechanical evaluation of different semi-rigid junctional fixation techniques using finite element analysis [PDF]

, 2023
BACKGROUND: Proximal junctional failure is a common complication attributed to the rigidity of long pedicle screw fixation constructs used for surgical correction of adult spinal deformity.

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

A review of complications and outcomes following vertebral column resection in adults [PDF]

, 2016
The correction of rigid spinal deformities in adult patients can require a three-column osteotomy (pedicle subtraction osteotomy [PSO] or vertebral column resection [VCR]) to obtain spinal balance.

Pedicle Subtraction Osteotomy for Kyphosis Following Lumbar Fusion Surgery

Spine Surgery and Related Research, 2018
Introduction: Pedicle subtraction osteotomy (PSO) is performed to correct sagittal plane deformity. This procedure is useful with revision cases in which the number of intact discs for correction is limited.

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 ...

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.
