Published in 2022 at "Clinical biomechanics"

DOI: 10.1016/j.clinbiomech.2022.105621

Abstract: BACKGROUND Proximal junctional kyphosis is a known complication of posterior long-segment thoracolumbar fusion. Here, the biomechanical effectiveness of ligament tethers strengthening and vertebral body augmentation, in proximal junctional kyphosis prevention was explored using the finite… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "International Journal of Surgery Case Reports"

DOI: 10.1016/j.ijscr.2020.01.025

Abstract: Highlights • Proximal junctional kyphosis in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis is frequent.• Poor visualization of the sagittal plane leads to incorrect identification of curve type.• Residual or progressive symptomatic kyphosis may require surgical treatment.• Pedicle subtraction… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "World neurosurgery"

DOI: 10.1016/j.wneu.2018.07.224

Abstract: BACKGROUND Proximal junctional kyphosis (PJK) is a common phenomenon after long segmental fusion surgery of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis. However, the inability to reliably identify vertebral endplates on lateral upright radiographs has made an accurate measurement… read more here.
