Proximal Junctional Failure Development Despite Achieving Ideal Sagittal Correction According to Age-Adjusted Alignment Target in Patients With Adult Spinal Deformity: Risk Factor Analysis of 196 Cases Undergoing Low Thoracic to Pelvic Fusion
A sizeable proportion of patients (21.9%) developed PJF despite achieving ideal sagittal correction. Using TP hooks with avoiding excessive LDI can be helpful to further mitigate the risk of PJF development in this patient group.
