Combine Short‐Segment Fixation and Leverage Reduction Technique to Correct Kyphotic Angle in Kümmell's Disease

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, Volume 18, Issue 7, Page 1518-1528, July 2026.
This study introduces a leverage reduction technique with short‐segment fixation for Kümmell's disease and kyphosis deformity. This advanced approach reliably restores vertebral height, corrects kyphosis, and improves clinical outcomes. ABSTRACT Objective Kümmell disease is a prevalent spinal condition characterized by vertebral fractures and ...

Generalized Joint Hypermobility in Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis: Greater Curve Flexibility, Larger Thoracic Kyphosis, but Higher Complication Risk

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, Volume 18, Issue 7, Page 1414-1425, July 2026.
Generalized joint hypermobility in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis is linked to greater spinal flexibility and increased thoracic kyphosis, but also elevates the risk of surgical complications, despite no significant differences in patient‐reported outcomes.
