Reproducibility of thoracic kyphosis measurements in patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis
BACKGROUND Current surgical treatment for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) involves correction in both the coronal and sagittal plane, and thorough assessment of these parameters is essential for evaluation of surgical results. However, various definitions of thoracic kyphosis (TK) have been proposed, and the intra- and inter-rater reproducibility of these measures has not been determined....
متن کاملRelationship between thoracic kyphosis and neural axis abnormalities in patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis
Purpose Previous studies have suggested an association between increased thoracic kyphosis and neural axis abnormalities in patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS). However, the basis for this finding is unclear, and this association has been mainly noted in retrospective studies on a non-consecutive series of patients. The purpose of this study was to assess the relationship betwee...
متن کاملPedicle screw versus hybrid construct instrumentation in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis: meta-analysis of thoracic kyphosis.
STUDY DESIGN A quantitative meta-analysis was conducted on publishing studies reporting results of spinal surgery in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis with instrumentation of pedicle screw or hybrid construct. OBJECTIVE The primary objective is to get overview of the power to restore thoracic kyphosis using 2 different instrumentations. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA During the past years, surger...
متن کاملInfluence of screw density on thoracic kyphosis restoration in hypokyphotic adolescent idiopathic scoliosis
BACKGROUND Previous studies have reported that rod composition and diameter, as well as the correction technique are key factors associated with thoracic kyphosis (TK) restoration. However, few study has analyzed the correlation between screw density and TK restoration in hypokyphotic adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS). METHODS Fifty-seven thoracic AIS patients with preoperative TK < 10° t...
متن کاملCervical kyphosis in patients with Lenke type 1 adolescent idiopathic scoliosis: the prediction of thoracic inlet angle
BACKGROUND Several studies have explored cervical kyphosis (CK) in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) patients. However, few studies have evaluated the cervical alignment in these patients according to their coronal curve type. The aim of this study was to analyze the radiological features of cervical sagittal alignment in Lenke 1 AIS patients before and after surgery. METHODS This is a re...
