Fig. 2

The pre- and 2-year postoperative radiographs of a Lenke 1 patient with AIS who had uncorrected CK after surgery. The coronal Cobb angle of the main curve was corrected from 58° preoperative to 6° postoperative (the rate of corrective Cobb angle was 89.7%). The C2-7 angle varied from 21° preoperative to 24° postoperative. The PTK varied from 4° preoperative to 3° postoperative. The TK decreased from 18° preoperative to 12° postoperative. AIS, adolescent idiopathic scoliosis; CK, cervical kyphosis; CL, cervical lordosis; PTK, proximal thoracic kyphosis; TK, thoracic kyphosis
