Shoulder balance in Lenke type 2 adolescent idiopathic scoliosis: the role of upper instrumented vertebrae selection and risk factor analysis
In Lenke type 2 AIS patients, the overall incidence of PSI was 32.9%. Compared with fusion to T3/4, fusion to T2 provided superior PTC correction and medial shoulder balance. The coordination between the PTC and MTC correction played a significant role in the maintenance of lateral shoulder balance.
