Lordosis distribution index for predicting mechanical complications after long-level fusion surgery: comparison of Global Alignment and Proportion score and Roussouly classification

CONCLUSIONS: The R-LDI, which uses a PI-based proportional parameter, enables individual quantification of LL for all PI sizes and has been shown to have a higher accuracy in classifying cases and a stronger correlation with the risk of mechanical complications compared with G-LDI.PMID:38277663 | DOI:10.3171/2023.11.SPINE23725
