Intraoperative versus postoperative radiographic coronal balance for adult spinal deformity surgery.

In adult spinal surgery, the intraoperative coronal alignment measured using the novel C7-CSPL distance correlates well with postoperative C7-CSVL distance. This gives the surgeon an objective measurement of the correction they need after assessing initial intraoperative imaging. Our findings suggest an intraoperative C7-CSPL distance < 5 cm as a threshold value to predict postoperative C7-CSVL < 4 cm in 97% of patients tested.
