Abstract
Abstract
Background
To date, the influence of Roussouly type on development of adjacent segment degeneration (ASD) after lumber fusion is still not fully explored, and the current study is aimed to evaluate the effect of Roussouly type on development of radiological ASD after single-level lumber fusion, and to compare the Roussouly types and spinopelvic parameters among those with different degenerative patterns of ASDs on sagittal plane.
Methods
A retrospective review of 288 patients underwent L4/5 or L5/S1 single-level posterior interbody fusions between January 2016 and December 2018 with a minimum 2-year follow up was performed. Radiological ASDs were identified and divided into 3 groups according to different degenerative patterns of the cephalad adjacent level on sagittal plane, including the types of retrolisthesis (Group A), anterolisthesis (Group B), and axial disc space narrowing (Group C). Roussouly types and radiological measurements were compared among three groups and potential risk factors for ASD were evaluated.
Results
Radiological ASD was found in 59 (20.5%) cases, in which patients with Roussouly type-2 was the most common. While, on subgroup analysis among three ASD groups, Roussouly type-1 occupied the highest proportion in Group A, differ in Group B and Group C, both with Type-2 as the most common. Moreover, Group A had significantly lower pelvic tilt (PT), larger sacral slope (SS), and larger segmental angle (SA) than Group B and Group C, which showed a more anteverted pelvic in Group A. Multivariate regression analysis noted Roussouly type, preoperative PT, and ∆PI-LL as the independent risk factors for radiological ASD.
Conclusion
Roussouly type was significantly associated with the development of radiological ASD; however, the Roussouly types and spinal pelvic parameters were varied among different sagittal degenerative patterns of ASD, which was important in restoring optimal lumbar sagittal alignments in initial surgery.
