  1. All parameters were described by Median (P25, P75). GK Global kyphosis, TK Thoracic kyphosis, TL Thoracolumbar curve, LL Lumbar lordosis, SVA Sagittal vertical axis, PI Pelvic incidence, PT Pelvic tile, SS Sacral slope, * means significant difference of the parameters between pre-op and final follow-up
