Association of spinopelvic index with proximal junctional failure developing in adult spinal deformity after surgical treatment: an observational study

Association of spinopelvic index with proximal junctional failure developing in adult spinal deformity after surgical treatment: an observational study

Abstract Background Those pelvic parameters of sacral slope (SS) and pelvic tilt (PT) correlated significantly to lumbar spine and hip joints respectively. We proposed the match between SS and PT, namely spinopelvic index (SPI), in order to investigate whether the SPI correlated to proximal junction...
