Abstrakt: Purpose: We defined sagittal S-line tilt (SSLT) as the tilt of the line connecting the upper instrumented vertebra and the lower instrumented vertebra. This study aimed to: (1) examine the correlation between SSLT and proximal junctional angle (PJA) change values, and (2) determine the cut-off value of SSLT with respect to proximal junctional kyphosis (PJK) occurrence.
Methods: Eighty-six consecutive patients (81 female and 5 male; mean age: 15.8 years) with Lenke 5C AIS who underwent posterior selective spinal fusion. Pearson's correlation coefficients were used to examine the relationship between preoperative SSLT and changes in PJA from preoperative to 2 years postoperative. The impact of SSLT on PJK at 2 years after surgery was assessed using a receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve.
Results: We observed a moderate positive correlation between preoperative SSLT and change in PJA (R = 0.541, P < 0.001). We identified 18 patients (21%) with PJK at 2 years postoperative. Mean preoperative SSLT in the PJK group and the non-PJK group differed significantly at 23.3 ± 4.1° and 16.1 ± 5.0°, respectively (P < 0.001). The cut-off value of preoperative SSLT for PJK at 2 years postoperative was 18° in ROC curve analysis, with a sensitivity of 94%, specificity of 68%, and area under the ROC curve of 0.868.
Conclusion: In selective lumbar fusion for AIS Lenke type 5C curves, preoperative SSLT was significantly correlated with PJA change from preoperative to 2 years postoperative. SSLT was a predictor of PJK occurrence, with a cut-off value of 18°.
