SteroidProtocol
Although its use is debated, methylprednisolone is currently the only recognized

PostoperativeManagement
Apatientwithanintraoperativeneurologicinsultshouldbeadmittedtotheintensivecare
unit postoperatively for close monitoring of hemodynamic parameters as well as for
neurologicexaminations.MAPmustbemaintainedat>80mmHgwiththejudicioususe
of intravenousfluid replacement, blood transfusion(ifindicated), or vasopressors when
necessarytomaintaincordperfusion.Aβ-agonist(e.g.,dopamine)canbeusedtomaintain
mean arterial blood pressure if fluid replacement alone is insufficient. A neurologic

Thismay posea problemifthepatientremains intubatedand sedated.Inthiscase,it is
paramount that the patient be lightened from sedation on an hourly basis for effective
assessmentofneurologicfunction.
DelayedPostoperativeNeurologicComplications

Neurologiccomplications in thepostoperative periodshould bemanaged withthesame

As with any acute SCI, adequate perfusion of the spinal cord is paramount. Blood
pressureshouldbe meticulouslymonitored,andMAPshouldbe maintainedat>80 mm
Hg in an effort to sustain spinal cord perfusion. Vasopressors (e.g., dopamine) may be
requiredtoattainadequatebloodpressureandcord perfusion.Hemoglobinlevelsshould
alsobe checked toavoid excessivepostoperative anemia.Patient temperatureshould be

decompression may improve neurologic outcome for the patient with new-onset

treatment.
ChapterSummary
The surgical treatment ofcomplexadult spinal deformity has advanced significantly in
recenttimeswiththeuseofpediclescrew-basedinstrumentationandtheincreasingroleof
complex three-column osteotomies to optimize deformity correction. The correction of
large magnitude coronal and sagittal plane deformity is becoming more common.

For adult scoliosis, nonoperative care is usually the first-line treatment option.
Nevertheless, surgerymay be inevitable when nonoperative measures fail. The primary
indications for surgery of adult scoliosis are (1) progressive deformity, (2) poor spinal
balance causing functional difficulties, (3) large deformity threatening cardiopulmonary
compromise, (4) neurologic manifestations, (5) persistent pain that fails to respond to
nonoperativetreatment, and (6)unacceptable cosmeticappearance.

Fusion distally to L5 offers the theoretical
benefits of preserved lumbosacral motion, shorter surgical time, and a decreased
likelihood of pseudarthrosis; on the other hand, it carries the potential for accelerated
symptomaticadvanceddegenerationattheL5/S1disk,whichinturnultimatelyresultsin
axial discomfort, radiculopathy, and loss of lumbosacral lordosis. In contrast to L5,
fusions extendedto the sacrum achievea higher stabilityof fixation as wellas a better
correction of sagittal imbalance, but this procedure also runs the risk of an increasing

developedin2005aclassificationforadultscoliosisbasedontheetiology:
type 1, de novo scoliosis; type 2, progressive idiopathic scoliosis; type 3a, secondary
degenerativescoliosis, duetoa preexistingcondition,eitherintrinsic(adjacentcurve)or
extrinsic(lowerlimblengthdiscrepancy)tothespine;andtype3b,scoliosissecondaryto
metabolic bone disease. However, it is difficult to differentiate the clinical etiology in
elderlypatients whoareunable toprovide eitheramedical historyor informationabout
theirspinal deformity.As thereisa paucityof informationin theliterature, thischapter
describes several experience-based radiographic criteria that may help to differentiate
betweendenovoandidiopathicscoliosis.

Fig.7.2a–dAdultdegenerativescoliosisina65-year-oldwoman.(a)StandingX-rayfilmsshowedaright-sidedlumbar

resonance imaging of advanced disk degeneration showed dark disks with narrowed disk height. (c,d) Computed
tomographyscansdemonstratedthevacuumphenomenonaswellascanalstenosisinthelowerlumbarregion.
ApicalDiskHeight
Inde novoscoliosis, asymmetricaldisk degenerationhasbeen regardedas theinitiating
factor that contributes to the occurrence of degenerative scoliosis. Asymmetric

degenerationintheapicaldisksleadstoasymmetricdiskcollapse,inducingacurvatureby
pivoting on the apical facet joint at the concave side, which in turn exacerbates more
degenerationofthe disksontheconcave sidethanontheconvexsideandthenstart the
vicious circle. Bao et al
11
also found that regional lumbar disk degeneration correlated
withthecoronalCobbangle,confirmingthatasymmetricdiskdegenerationcontributedto
the development of de novo scoliosis. We observed that the convex disk height was
significantlylessindenovoscoliosis(Fig.7.2)thaninidiopathicscoliosis(Fig.7.1).
CurvePattern
Themajorityofdegenerativescoliosisaffectsthelumbarorthoracolumbarspine,andtheir
curve patterns may be different from that of idiopathic scoliosis. Because the original
pathogenesisofdenovoscoliosisisthedegenerationofdiskandfacetjoints,theapexof
thelumbarcurveisoftenlocatedattheintervertebralspace.Themostcommonapexofde
novoscoliosisistheintervertebralspaceofL2/3orL3/4,oftenwithashortercurvespan.
Inaddition,thelevelsinvolvedinthedegenerativecurvearegenerallythreetofourlevels,
whereasfourtosixlevelsaremorecommoninidiopathiccurves.
RegularityofApicalVertebra
Inadditiontocurvepatterns,the apicalvertebrain denovoscoliosisisoftenirregularly
wedged.Osteophytes,end-plateabruption,andosteoporoticminorfracturearecommonly
seenindegenerativevertebrae,sotheshapeofvertebramaynotberegularlytrapezoid.In
contrast, wedging of apical vertebra, if any, is usually regular in idiopathic lumbar
scoliosis.
CompensatoryCurveAbovetheMainCurve
Regular compensatory curves proximal to the main curve in idiopathic scoliosis may
develop during adolescence, and serve as a way to re-balance the distal
thoracolumbar/lumbar curve in the coronal plane (Fig. 7.1). That explains why global
coronal imbalance is less frequent in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis cases with double
curve patterns, owingtothe compensatory curve and its compensatory abilityfrom the
diskal,pelvic,andcertainlyspinalmuscularstructureaswell.Thisbalancingpatternmay
continue into adulthood and last for a long time. This feature of compensatory curves
couldserveasanimportantradiographicsigntodifferentiatethesetwoentities.
Patientswith de novoscoliosis oftenpresent earlywith coronalor sagittalimbalance
due to the less effective compensative curves above the imbalance. In contrast with
sagittal imbalance, there is paucity of information in the literature on the incidence of
coronalimbalanceindenovoscoliosis.Basedonourstudy,
11
aboutonethirdofpatients
withdenovoscoliosismaypresentwithcoronalimbalanceduetoalackofcompensatory
curves.Similarto thefunctionalscoliosisseeninyoungindividualswithdisk herniation
or otherlower back diseases,trunk shifting isnot uncommon inde novo scoliosiswith
stenosis because of the pain-alleviating mechanism. This trunk shifting or coronal

imbalancewithspinalcurvemaybecomestructuralwithtime.
CorrelationBetweentheCobbAngleandImbalance
The discrepancy between the Cobb angle and imbalance in de novo scoliosis is an
interestingfinding.Degenerativecurvesalwaysareshorterthantheidiopathiccurvesand
have a smaller Cobb angle. As mentioned earlier, coronal imbalance is an important
featureof de novoscoliosis, whateverthe Cobbangle, whereassignificant imbalanceis
mostlywitnessedinadultidiopathicscoliosiswithseverecurves.Therefore,asmallCobb
anglewithobviouscoronalimbalanceindicatesthatthecurvemightbedegenerative(Fig.
7.2).
CorrectionAbilityofRotatorySubluxation
Vertebral rotatorysubluxation (VRS)isatriaxialdeformity,predominantlyat theL3/L4
level,withfemale predominance.Althoughit ismorelikely tooccurinpatients withde
novoscoliosisattheearlystageofthedeformity,itcouldalsooccurduringthelatecourse
ofadultidiopathicscoliosis.Atourcenter,wefoundthatthecorrectabilityofVRSunder
traction or on side-bending films could be used to differentiate de novo scoliosis and
idiopathic scoliosis. In the former, reduction of VRS under tractionor on side bending
maynotbeachievedbecauseoftherigidityfromvertebraldegenerationatthesubluxation
level,including diskcollapse, osteophytes,and spontaneousvertebralor facetfusion. In
contrast,inidiopathicscoliosis,VRScouldbepartiallyreducedundertractionoronside
bending.
DiscrepancyBetweentheCobbAngleandRotatory
Subluxation
AtourcenterwenotedthatVRSwasmoreliketooccurwhentheCobbangleincreasedin
casesof idiopathicscoliosis.However,inde novoscoliosis,VRSmayoccur atitsearly
stage,anditsonsetandseveritymaynotnecessarilybecorrelatedwiththeCobbangle.In
otherwords,VRSindenovoscoliosismaydevelopevenincaseswithasmallcurve.
TheOriginofStenosis
Accordingtothedefinitionofdenovoscoliosis,itsprimarycauseisthedegenerationof
spine,includingdisks,themuscle–ligamentscomplex,andthefacetjoint.Lumbarstenosis
ismorecommonlyseeninprimarydegenerativescoliosisthaninadultidiopathiccurves.
Therefore, radicular leg pain and claudication should be more common in de novo
scoliosis,evenwithsmallcurves.Thisisinaccordancewithourclinicalobservationthat
mechanicalback pain isthe mostcommoncomplaint inmany adultidiopathicscoliosis
patients due to deformity-induced paraspinal muscle fatigue, whereas neurogenic back
pain in combination with leg pain is the most common complaint in de novo scoliosis
patients(Fig.7.2).
