Pelvic Incidence Affects Age-adjusted Alignment Outcomes in a Population of Adult Spinal Deformity

Conclusions:

Patients with high PI reached ideal postoperative age-adjusted PT alignment at a lower rate than patients with normative and low PI. Height had no impact on postoperative age-adjusted alignment outcomes. Current postoperative ideal alignment targets may warrant an adjustment to account for PI.
