PURPOSE: Limited data is available in the literature on the radiographic results of @entity2649 ( @entity2649 ) in the treatment of @entity179 . The objective of our study was to evaluate the segmental and global correction achieved with @entity2649 in the treatment of @entity179 . METHODS: Between 2009 and 2014, 42 @entity1 underwent correction of @entity179 with @entity2649 . Several radiological parameters were measured pre- and post-operatively by two independent observers. A statistical analysis was performed to assess the inter-observer reliability of the measurements and to determine the degree of segmental correction achieved at each intervertebral disc. Using sagittal vertical axis (SVA) less than 47  mm; lumbar @entity1515 (LL) within 11   of pelvic incidence (PI); and pelvic tilt (PT) no more than 22   as radiological criteria for procedural acceptability, we determined predictive factors for a favourable radiological outcome. RESULTS: Forty-two @entity1 (34 female) were included in our study. The average amount of correction per segment was 6.2  . The overall correction achieved with @entity2649 was 16.6  . Twenty-six of the 42 @entity1 (61.9  %) had post-operative SVA values less than 47  mm. Nineteen of the 42 @entity1 (45.2  %) had average post-operative LL within 11   of the PI. Sixteen of the 42 @entity1 (38.1  %) had PT less than 22  . Younger age, female gender and a low pre-operative PT were significantly associated with the attainment of a satisfactory sagittal alignment. CONCLUSION: Our results demonstrate that a satisfactory correction can be achieved in @entity179 with @entity2649 . In addition, our results show that it is significantly more likely to achieve a satisfactory radiological outcome in younger, female @entity1 with low pre-operative PT.
