Postoperative Evolution of Sagittal Parameters Over Time Does Not Differ by Upper Instrumented Vertebra

Conclusions. Our data suggest that although several key parameters are maintained over time out to 2years postopera- tively, TK tends to worsen over time for all patients, whereas TLK preferentially increases in the LT group. Nevertheless, despite these trends, compensatory changes are seen in PT such that global alignment is relatively maintained. Level of Evidence: 3
