Expert Perspectives on Theoretical and Practical Aspects of Sagittal Alignment of the Spine
Current and emerging data illustrates a direct correlation between spinal alignment and long term clinical outcomes. Specific spinal and spinopelvic parameters are key predictors in determining successful patient outcomes in all spinal procedures from single- to multi-level pathologies.
Sagittal malalignment of the spine has also been associated with worsened postsurgical outcomes. For better operative planning of fusion and alignment restoration, improved knowledge of ideal fusion angles and interdependences between upper and lower spine alignment is needed. Because spinal and spinopelvic parameters might play a role in sagittal alignment, their associations should be assessed.
NuVasive is committed to a global approach for assessing, preserving, and restoring spinal alignment in an effort to promote surgical efficiencies, lasting patient outcomes, and improved quality of life.
