Official title:
Cervical Sagittal Alignment Changes After Correction of Thoracic Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis With Severe Thoracic Hypokyphosis: Which Factors Are Predictive? A Multicenter Retrospective Study
The sagittal alignment of Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis (AIS) curves has attracted growing interest in recent years, to the extent that it has become a pivotal point in the Lenke classification, with the introduction of a sagittal modifier. In particular, thoracic curves, partly due to the theory of anterior overgrowth, are almost invariably characterized by thoracic hypokyphosis, which can be severe (T5-T12 thoracic kyphosis < 10°, that corresponds to a Lenke - sagittal modifier). However, the development of such a severely abnormal sagittal alignment has consequences that are not limited only to the thoracic region, but it rather results in a disruption of the entire sagittal spinal alignment. In fact, thoracic hypokyphosis tends to shift the C7SVA backward and to decrease the T1 slope. As a compensation, this ultimately leads to the development of a cervical kyphosis in order to translate the head forward and maintain global sagittal balance. While the interplay relationship between thoracic hypokyphosis and the development of cervical kyphosis has been well established in modern literature, the results regarding the amount of spontaneous correction of cervical kyphosis achieved after hypokyphotic AIS correction are conflicting. There are several papers in literature that study the complex relationship between AIS and cervical kyphosis, and they did not report any improvement in cervical lordosis after AIS correction, even when successful restoration of thoracic kyphosis (TK) was achieved. Conversely, other authors did report an improvement in cervical sagittal alignment after AIS correction. The aim of the present paper is firstly to assess the amount of spontaneous change in cervical sagittal alignment after correction of AIS with associated severe thoracic hypokyphosis (<10°). Secondly, the aim of the study is to seek for any radiographical parameter able to predict the postoperative cervical sagittal alignment in these patients, via a multivariate regression analysis.
