Non-neurologic adverse events after complex adult spinal deformity surgery: results from the prospective, multicenter Scoli-RISK-1 study

These findings complement the earlier report of neurologic complications after ASD surgeries from the Scoli-RISK-1 study.Graphical abstract These slides can be retrieved under Electronic Supplementary Material.
