Both structural damage and inflammation of the lumbar spine contribute to the sagittal imbalance in ankylosing spondylitis patients with thoracolumbar kyphosis Open
Both structural damage and inflammation of the lumbar spine contributed to the sagittal imbalance in AS patients with thoracolumbar kyphosis. In the late stages of AS, the sagittal imbalance was more attributable to the structural damage t…

Is Growth-friendly Surgical Treatment Superior to One-stage Posterior Spinal Fusion in 9- to 11-year-old Children with Congenital Scoliosis? Open
Background The distraction-based growth-friendly technique has become a mainstay of treatment for young children with long-spanned congenital scoliosis. However, in patients who are 9 years to 11 years old, the choice is much less clear, a…

Spinal Gorham-Stout syndrome: radiological changes and spinal deformities Open
CT and MRI investigations are important in the initial diagnosis and continued management for spinal GSS. A typical spinal deformity secondary to GSS presents as kyphosis or kyphoscoliosis, which is usually highly variable but highly conco…
View article: Case-matched comparative analysis of spinal deformity correction in arthrogryposis multiplex congenita versus adolescent idiopathic scoliosis
Case-matched comparative analysis of spinal deformity correction in arthrogryposis multiplex congenita versus adolescent idiopathic scoliosis Open
OBJECTIVE As scoliosis in arthrogryposis multiplex congenita (AMC) is unusual and the number of cases reviewed in previous studies is also relatively small, no previous study exists that has directly compared the results of spinal deformit…

A re-evaluation of the effects of dual growing rods on apical vertebral rotation in patients with early-onset scoliosis and a minimum of two lengthening procedures: a CT-based study Open
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to evaluate the correction results of traditional dual growing rods (DGRs) on axial rotation using CT scans and to further explore the relationships between axial and torso deformities in patients with early-onse…
