Can Proximal Junctional Kyphosis after Surgery for Adult Spinal Deformity Be Predicted by Preoperative Dynamic Sagittal Alignment Change with 3D Gait Analysis? A Case–Control Study

Can Proximal Junctional Kyphosis after Surgery for Adult Spinal Deformity Be Predicted by Preoperative Dynamic Sagittal Alignment Change with 3D Gait Analysis? A Case–Control Study

Background: Severe spinal deformity is a risk factor for proximal junctional kyphosis (PJK) in surgery for adult spinal deformity (ASD). However, standing X-ray imaging in patients with dynamic spinal imbalance can underestimate the risk of PJK because of compensation mechanisms. This study aimed to...
