Study Design. Systematic review of literature. Objective. To perform a comprehensive
English language systematic literature review of proximal junctional kyphosis (PJK) and …

Proximal junctional kyphosis (PJK) is a common complication following adult spinal
deformity surgery. It is defined by two criteria: a proximal junctional sagittal Cobb angle (1)≥ …

Study Design. Retrospective cohort. Objective. To explore proximal junctional kyphosis
(PJK) as a function of age-adjusted surgical correction goals. Summary of Background Data …

Study Design. A retrospective study. Objective. To assess the mechanisms and the
independent risk factors associated with proximal junctional kyphosis (PJK) in patients …

Study Design. Case control study. Objective. To evaluate risk factors in patients in 3 groups:
those without proximal junctional kyphosis (PJK)(N), with PJK but not requiring revision (P) …

BACKGROUND: The failure modes, time to development, and clinical relevance are known
to differ between proximal junctional kyphosis (PJK) and proximal junctional failure (PJF) …

OBJECTIVE Proximal junctional kyphosis (PJK) remains problematic following multilevel
instrumented spine surgery. Previous biomechanical studies indicate that providing less …

Abstract Background Context There are several reports regarding pathogeneses and risk
factors for proximal junctional kyphosis (PJK) in adult spinal deformity surgery. However, the …

Despite the fact that spinal surgeries for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) result in good
outcomes for most patients, they are not without complications either medically or surgically …

Purpose To analyse the incidence and risk factors associated with proximal junctional
kyphosis (PJK) following spinal fusion, we collect relative statistics from the articles on PJK …
