Study Design: A retrospective review of a prospective adult spinal deformity data.
Objective: To identify distinct patient clinical profiles and recovery trajectories in patients with adult spinal deformity (ASD).
Summary Of Background Data: Patients with ASD exhibit a diverse array of symptoms and significant heterogeneity in clinical presentations, posing challenges to precise clinical decision-making.

Purpose: The dynamic alignment of the lumbar spine, pelvis and femur is increasingly studied in hip preservation surgery. However, the interaction between lumbopelvic alignment, acetabular and femoral morphology and its influence on patients' preoperative symptom burden remains poorly understood. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether lumbopelvic malalignment affects osseous hip morphology and exacerbates preoperative patient-reported joint functionality in patients undergoing periacetabular osteotomy (PAO).

Purpose: To assess the radiological outcomes and complications focusing on distal junctional failure (DJF) of adult spinal deformity patients who underwent thoracolumbar fixation with the use of offset sublaminar hooks (OSH) distally.
Methods: Retrospective review of a prospective, multicenter adult spinal deformity database (2 sites). Inclusion criteria were age of at least 18 years, presence of a spinal deformity with thoraco-lumbar instrumentation ending distally with OSH (pelvis excluded), with minimum 2 years of follow-up.

Background: Adult spinal reconstructive surgery that requires multilevel spinal fusion is highly invasive and requires two-stage surgery using lateral lumbar interbody fusion (LLIF) and/or percutaneous pedicle screw (PPS) fixation to make it less invasive. However, it is still difficult to make spinal osteotomy less invasive, and the high complication rate is an issue.
Observations: The authors present the surgical techniques of a two-stage Schwab grade 4 spinal osteotomy using LLIF, which could reduce surgical invasiveness and enable good correction and anterior spinal column reconstruction for lumbar kyphosis, and also report a case treated with this procedure.

Pedicle subtraction osteotomy (PSO) is a technically complex procedure that is effective at improving the sagittal profile in spinal deformity surgery. This case report describes a 64-year-old man with a history of ten previous spinal surgeries, including failed T10-pelvis posterior spinal fusion, undergoing revision with L4 PSO. The patient regained approximately 30° of lumbar lordosis.
