procedure

back pain worse

  • Cx: none

then worsening back pain

  • Cx: headaches resolved

Pre-operative Planning

  • Needs large coronal

and sagittal correction

  • Major osteotomy has

high complications

Surgery

  • Coronal taper T12-L1,

L2-3 (loosen set screw)

  • Hyperlordotic 30°L1-2
  • Then T10-Pelvis PSF
  • T9, T10 kyphoplasties

Summary Comprehensive approach includes:

  • Detailed history

– Current symptoms and prior surgeries

  • Physical Exam

– Assessment of balance – Neuro exam – Prior incisions – Joint contractures – Evidence of infection

  • Advanced imaging and other tests
  • Thorough assessment of pathology at each level and globally
  • Careful preoperative planning to inform most definitive treatment
