Popis: Abstract Background Pedicle subtraction osteotomy (PSO) and vertebral column decancellation (VCD) are frequently used methods for correction of thoracolumbar kyphosis resulting from ankylosing spondylitis (AS). However, there are limited reports performed to evaluate the difference of loss of correction and the effectiveness of PSO and VCD techniques in patients with thoracolumbar kyphosis secondary to AS. Objective To retrospectively estimate the effectiveness of correction and loss of correction of PSO and VCD techniques in patients with thoracolumbar kyphosis secondary to AS. Methods We performed a retrospective review of 61 consecutive AS kyphosis patients undergoing PSO or VCD surgery from March 2012 to April 2015. The patients were divided into PSO group (n = 25) and VCD group (n = 36) according to the types of osteotomies. Measurement of the radiographic parameters was performed and the change was analyzed. Results Mean loss of correction in the global kyphosis was 2.31° in the PSO group and 2.29° in VCD group at the last follow-up, respectively, with no significant difference. Progressive junctional kyphosis occurred in both groups. VCD obtained a significantly larger correction than PSO while sharing a similar incidence of complications. No serious complications were observed in the two groups. Conclusion The PSO osteotomy and VCD osteotomy are both safe and effective methods in treating thoracolumbar kyphosis secondary to AS. Mild loss of correction mainly occurred in the global kyphosis in both techniques with no significant difference.
