Abstract
BACKGROUND The long-term impact of reoperations following adult spinal deformity (ASD) surgery is still poorly understood. Our aim was to identify the relationship between unplanned reoperation and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) gain at 2 and 5 years of follow-up. METHODS We included patients enrolled in a prospective ASD database who underwent surgery ≥5 years prior to the start of the study and who had 2 years of follow-up data. Adverse events (AEs) leading to an unplanned reoperation, the time of reoperation occurrence, invasiveness (blood loss, surgical time, hospital stay), and AE resolution were assessed. HRQoL was measured with use of the Oswestry Disability Index, Scoliosis Research Society-22, and Short Form-36. Linear models controlling for baseline data and index surgery characteristics were utilized to assess the relationships between HRQoL gain at 2 and 5-year follow-up and the number and invasiveness of reoperations. The association between 5-year HRQoL gain and the time of occurrence of the unplanned reoperation and that between 5-year HRQoL gain and AE resolution were also investigated. RESULTS Of 361 eligible patients, 316 (87.5%) with 2-year follow-up data met the inclusion criteria and 258 (71.5%) had 5-year follow-up data. At the 2-year follow-up, 96 patients (30.4%) had a total of 165 unplanned reoperations (1.72 per patient). At the 5-year follow-up, 73 patients (28.3%) had a total of 117 unplanned reoperations (1.60 per patient). The most common cause of reoperations was mechanical complications (64.9%), followed by surgical site infections (15.7%). At the 5-year follow-up, the AE that led to reoperation was resolved in 67 patients (91.8%). Reoperation invasiveness was not associated with 5-year HRQoL scores. The number of reoperations was associated with lesser HRQoL gain at 5 years for all HRQoL measures. The mean associated reduction in HRQoL gain per unplanned reoperation was 41% (range, 19% to 66%). Reoperations resulting in no resolution of the AE or resolution with sequelae had a greater impact on 5-year follow-up HRQoL scores than reoperations resulting in resolution of the AE. CONCLUSIONS A postoperative, unplanned reoperation following ASD surgery was associated with lesser gain in HRQoL at 5 years of follow-up. The association did not diminish over time and was affected by the number, but not the magnitude, of reoperations. Resolution of the associated AE reduced the impact of the unplanned reoperation. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Prognostic Level II. See Instructions for Authors for a complete description of levels of evidence.

Abstract
Adult spinal deformity (ASD) is a complex disease that can result in significant disability. Although surgical treatment has been shown to be of benefit, the complication rate in the perioperative and postoperative periods can be as high as 70%. Some of the most common complications of ASD surgery include intraoperative cerebrospinal fluid leak, high blood loss, new neurologic deficit, hardware failure, proximal junctional kyphosis/failure, pseudarthrosis, surgical site infection, and medical complications. For each of these complications, one or more strategies can be utilized to avoid and/or minimize the consequences.

Abstract
STUDY DESIGN Prospective, multicenter, international, observational study. OBJECTIVE Identify independent prognostic factors associated with achieving the minimal clinically important difference (MCID) in patient reported outcome measures (PROMs) among adult spinal deformity (ASD) patients ≥60 years of age undergoing primary reconstructive surgery. METHODS Patients ≥60 years undergoing primary spinal deformity surgery having ≥5 levels fused were recruited for this study. Three approaches were used to assess MCID: (1) absolute change:0.5 point increase in the SRS-22r sub-total score/0.18 point increase in the EQ-5D index; (2) relative change: 15% increase in the SRS-22r sub-total/EQ-5D index; (3) relative change with a cut-off in the outcome at baseline: similar to the relative change with an imposed baseline score of ≤3.2/0.7 for the SRS-22r/EQ-5D, respectively. RESULTS 171 patients completed the SRS-22r and 170 patients completed the EQ-5D at baseline and at 2 years postoperative. Patients who reached MCID in the SRS-22r self-reported more pain and worse health at baseline in both approaches (1) and (2). Lower baseline PROMs ((1) - OR: .01 [.00-.12]; (2)- OR: .00 [.00-.07]) and number of severe adverse events (AEs) ((1) - OR: .48 [.28-.82]; (2)- OR: .39 [.23-.69]) were the only identified risk factors. Patients who reached MCID in the EQ-5D demonstrated similar characteristics regarding pain and health at baseline as the SRS-22r using approaches (1) and (2). Higher baseline ODI ((1) - OR: 1.05 [1.02-1.07]) and number of severe AEs (OR: .58 [.38-.89]) were identified as predictive variables. Patients who reached MCID in the SRS22r experienced worse health at baseline using approach (3). The number of AEs (OR: .44 [.25-.77]) and baseline PROMs (OR: .01 [.00-.22] were the only identified predictive factors. Patients who reached MCID in the EQ-5D experienced less AEs and a lower number of actions taken due to the occurrence of AEs using approach (3). The number of actions taken due to AEs (OR: .50 [.35-.73]) was found to be the only predictive variable factor. No surgical, clinical, or radiographic variables were identified as risk factors using either of the aforementioned approaches. CONCLUSION In this large multicenter prospective cohort of elderly patients undergoing primary reconstructive surgery for ASD, baseline health status, AEs, and severity of AEs were predictive of reaching MCID. No clinical, radiological, or surgical parameters were identified as factors that can be prognostic for reaching MCID.

Abstract
PURPOSE Pan Lumbar Arthodesis (PLA) are often required for Adult Spinal Deformity (ASD) correction, reducing significantly the compensatory capacity in case of postoperative sagittal malalignment. Few papers have investigated outcomes and complications in this vulnerable subset of patients. The objective of this study was to assess revision surgery rate for PLA in ASD, its risk factors and impact on clinical outcomes. METHODS Retrospective multicenter review of prospective ASD data from 7 hospitals covering Europe and Asia. ASD patients included in two prospective databases having a posterior instrumentation spanning the whole lumbar region with more than 2-years of follow-up were reviewed. Demographic, surgical, radiographic parameters and Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQoL) scores were analyzed. Univariate and multivariate regression models analyzed risk factors for revision surgery as well as surgical outcomes. Patients with Early versus Late and PJK versus Non-PJK mechanical complications were also compared. RESULTS Out of 1359 ASD patients included in the database 589 (43%) had a PLA and 357 reached 2-years mark. They were analyzed and compared to non-PLA patients. Average age was 67 and 82% were females. 100 Patients (28.1%) needed 114 revision surgeries (75.4% for mechanical failures). Revised patients were more likely to have a nerve system disorder, higher BMI and worst immediate postoperative alignment (as measured by GAP Parameters). These risk factors were also associated with earlier mechanical complications and PJK. Deformity and HRQoL parameters were comparable at baseline. Non-revised patients had significantly better clinical outcomes at 2-years (SRS 22 scores, ODI, Back pain). Multivariate analysis could identify nerve system disorder (OR 4.8; CI 1.8-12.6; p = 0.001), postoperative sagittal alignment (GAP Score) and high BMI (OR 1.07; CI 1.01-1.13; p = 0.004) as independent risk factors for revisions. CONCLUSIONS Revision surgery due to mechanical failures is relatively common after PLA leading to worse clinical outcomes. Prevention strategies should focus on individualized restoration of sagittal alignment and better weight control to decrease stress on these rigid constructs in non-compliant spines. Nerve system disorders independently increase revision risk in PLA. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE II Prognosis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Revision surgery is often necessary for adult spinal deformity (ASD) patients. Satisfaction with management is an important component of health-related quality of life. The authors hypothesized that patients who underwent multiple revision surgeries following ASD correction would exhibit lower self-reported satisfaction scores. METHODS This was a retrospective cohort study of 668 patients who underwent ASD surgery and were eligible for a minimum 2-year follow-up. Visits were stratified by occurrence prior to the index surgery (period 0), after the index surgery only (period 1), after the first revision only (period 2), and after the second revision only (period 3). Patients were further stratified by prior spine surgery before their index surgery. Scoliosis Research Society-22 (SRS-22r) health-related quality-of-life satisfaction subscore and total satisfaction scores were evaluated at all periods using multiple linear regression and adjustment for age, sex, and Charlson Comorbidity Index. RESULTS In total, 46.6% of the study patients had undergone prior spine surgery before their index surgery. The overall revision rate was 21.3%. Among patients with no spine surgery prior to the index surgery, SRS-22r satisfaction scores increased from period 0 to 1 (from 2.8 to 4.3, p < 0.0001), decreased after one revision from period 1 to 2 (4.3 to 3.9, p = 0.0004), and decreased further after a second revision from period 2 to 3 (3.9 to 3.3, p = 0.0437). Among patients with spine surgery prior to the index procedure, SRS-22r satisfaction increased from period 0 to 1 (2.8 to 4.2, p < 0.0001) and decreased from period 1 to 2 (4.2 to 3.8, p = 0.0011). No differences in follow-up time from last surgery were observed (all p > 0.3). Among patients with multiple revisions, 40% experienced rod fracture, 40% proximal junctional kyphosis, and 33% pseudarthrosis. CONCLUSIONS Among patients undergoing ASD surgery, revision surgery is associated with decreased satisfaction, and multiple revisions are associated with additive detriment to satisfaction among patients initially undergoing primary surgery. These findings have direct implications for preoperative patient counseling and establishment of postoperative expectations.

Abstract
STUDY DESIGN This was a retrospective cohort study. OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of undergoing a prior lumbar procedure on mental health outcomes following anterior cervical discectomy and fusion. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA Revision and reoperations are perceived as risk factors for worse mental health outcomes. METHODS A retrospective review of a surgical database was performed for cervical and lumbar procedures. The mental health measures used were: Short Form 12-Item Mental Composite Score (SF-12 MCS) and Patient Health Questionnaire 9 (PHQ-9). Secondary outcomes of interest were Visual Analogue Scale for neck and arm pain, Neck Disability Index, and Short Form 12-Item Physical Composite Score (SF-12 PCS). All outcomes were collected preoperatively and at 6 weeks, 12 weeks, 6 months, and 1 year postoperatively. Minimum clinically important difference (MCID) was calculated using established values. Patients were grouped based on the surgical history of an elective lumbar spine procedure and propensity-matched. Differences in postoperative outcome scores and MCID achievement were evaluated using linear and logistic regression respectively. RESULTS A total of 74 patients were included in this study. Mental health outcomes did not demonstrate significant differences between groups for SF-12 MCS and PHQ-9 for all time points except at 6 weeks for PHQ-9 ( P =0.038). MCID achievement was not significantly impacted by surgical history for all outcome measures at all postoperative time points (all P >0.050). The majority of patients achieved an MCID by the 1-year time point for all outcomes for patients without a prior lumbar surgery except for Visual Analogue Scale arm and SF-12 PCS, while those with a surgical history achieved an MCID for all outcomes except SF-12 PCS and PHQ-9. CONCLUSIONS Anterior cervical discectomy and fusion patients with a past history of lumbar surgery demonstrated significant improvements in depression, neck and arm pain, disability, and physical function as those without a past lumbar surgical history. Prior surgery also did not impact MCID achievement for all outcomes.

Abstract
STUDY DESIGN Literature review. OBJECTIVE The aim of this review is to summarize recent literature on adult spinal deformity (ASD) treatment failure as well as prevention strategies for these failure modes. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA There is substantial evidence that ASD surgery can provide significant clinical benefits to patients. The volume of ASD surgery is increasing, and significantly more complex procedures are being performed, especially in the aging population with multiple comorbidities. Although there is potential for significant improvements in pain and disability with ASD surgery, these procedures continue to be associated with major complications and even outright failure. METHODS A systematic search of the PubMed database was performed for articles relevant to failure after ASD surgery. Institutional review board approval was not needed. RESULTS Failure and the potential need for revision surgery generally fall into 1 of 4 well-defined phenotypes: clinical failure, radiographic failure, the need for reoperation, and lack of cost-effectiveness. Revision surgery rates remain relatively high, challenging the overall cost-effectiveness of these procedures. CONCLUSION By consolidating the key evidence regarding failure, further research and innovation may be stimulated with the goal of significantly improving the safety and cost-effectiveness of ASD surgery.

Abstract
STUDY DESIGN Retrospective cohort study. OBJECTIVE To investigate whether patient-reported outcomes (PROs) were consistent at 2 and 5 years after corrective fusion surgery from the thoracic spine to the pelvis in patients with adult spinal deformity (ASD) and to analyze whether revision surgery affected long-term outcomes. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA PROs up to 2 years after corrective surgeries for ASD have been well-studied, but there are few reports of mid- to long-term results. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed patients with ASD who underwent corrective fusion surgery from the thoracic spine to the pelvis between 2010 and 2015. We investigated radiographic parameters and PROs (Scoliosis Research Society 22r [SRS-22r], Oswestry Disability Index [ODI]) preoperatively and at 1, 2, and 5 years postoperatively, and the correlations between PROs at these time points. We also compared changes in PROs at 5 years in patients who underwent revision surgery and those who did not. RESULTS A total of 131 patients who underwent corrective fusion surgery from the thoracic spine to the pelvis were analyzed. The PROs at 1 and 5 years after surgery showed significant correlations in all SRS-22r domains (function [r = 0.620], pain [r = 0.577], self-image [r = 0.563], mental health [r = 0.589], subtotal [r = 0.663], and ODI [r = 0.654]). The PROs at 2 and 5 years after surgery showed significantly strong correlations in all domains (function [r = 0.715], pain [r = 0.678], self-image [r = 0.653], mental health [r = 0.675], subtotal [r = 0.741], and ODI [r = 0.746]). There were no significant differences in the change in PROs at 5 years in any domain in patients who underwent revision surgery (all P > 0.05). CONCLUSION One-year postoperative PROs improved significantly. Two-year PROs correlated strongly with 5-year postoperative PROs, indicating that 2-year PROs can predict longer term outcomes. The need for revision surgery did not influence the mid- to long-term clinical outcomes of corrective fusion surgery for ASD.Level of Evidence: 3.

Combined anterior-posterior versus all-posterior approaches for adult spinal deformity correction: a matched control study. EUROPEAN SPINE JOURNAL : OFFICIAL PUBLICATION OF THE EUROPEAN SPINE SOCIETY, THE EUROPEAN SPINAL DEFORMITY SOCIETY, AND THE EUROPEAN SECTION OF THE CERVICAL SPINE RESEARCH SOCIETY 2022; 31:1754-1764. [PMID: 35622154 DOI: 10.1007/s00586-022-07249-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/27/2021] [Revised: 04/19/2022] [Accepted: 04/26/2022] [Indexed: 10/18/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE Anterior approaches are gaining popularity for adult spinal deformity (ASD) surgeries especially with the introduction of hyperlordotic cages and improvement in MIS techniques. Combined Approaches provide powerful segmental sagittal correction potential and increase the surface area available for fusion in ASD surgery, both of which would improve overall. This is the first study directly comparing surgical outcomes between combined anterior-posterior approaches and all-posterior approach in a matched ASD population. METHODS This is a retrospective matched control cohort analysis with substitution using a multicenter prospectively collected ASD data of patients with > 2 year FU. Matching criteria include: age, American Society of Anesthesiologists Score, Lumbar Cobb angle, sagittal deformity (Global tilt) and ODI. RESULTS In total, 1024 ASD patients were available for analysis. 29 Combined Approaches patients met inclusion criteria, and only 22 could be matched (1:2 ratio). Preoperative non-matched demographical, clinical, surgical and radiological parameters were comparable between both groups. Combined approaches had longer surgeries (548 mns vs 283) with more blood loss (2850 ml vs 1471) and needed longer ICU stays (74 h vs 27). Despite added morbidity, they had comparable complication rates but with significantly less readmissions (9.1% vs 38.1%) and reoperations (18.2% vs 43.2%) at 2 years. Combined Approaches achieved more individualised and harmonious deformity correction initially. At the 2 years control, Combined Approaches patients reported better outcomes as measured by COMI and SRS scores. This trend was maintained at 3 years. CONCLUSION Despite an increased initial surgical invasiveness, combined approaches seem to achieve more harmonious correction with superior sagittal deformity control; they need fewer revisions and have improved long-term functional outcomes when compared to all-posterior approaches for ASD deformity correction.

Abstract
PURPOSE To identify factors contributing to persistent postoperative pain in patients treated surgically for idiopathic scoliosis. METHODS In total, 280 patients aged ten through 25 years at surgery, were identified in the Swedish Spine registry; all having preoperative and postoperative visual analogue scale (VAS) for back pain scores. The patients were divided into a high and low postoperative pain group based on the reported postoperative VAS for back pain scores (by using 45 mm on the 0 mm to 100 mm VAS scale as a cut-off). The patient-reported questionnaire included VAS for back pain, the 3-level version of EuroQol 5-dimensional (EQ-5D-3L) instrument, the EuroQol VAS (EQ-VAS) and the Scoliosis Research Society 22r instrument (SRS-22r). Predictors of postoperative back pain were searched in the preoperative data. RESULTS The 67 (24%) patients that reported high postoperative VAS back pain (> 45 mm) also reported lower postoperative EQ-5D-3L, EQ-VAS and SRS-22r than patients with low postoperative VAS back pain (all p < 0.001). Two preoperative variables were independently associated with postoperative pain; each millimetre increase in preoperative VAS back pain (on the 0 mm to 100 mm scale) was associated with a higher risk of being in the high postoperative back pain group (odds ratio (OR) 1.03; 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.02 to 1.05) and each 1 point decrease on the preoperative SRS-22r mental health (scale from 1 to 5) was associated with a higher risk of being in the high postoperative back pain group (OR 1.68; 95% CI 1.03 to 2.73). CONCLUSION High preoperative back pain and low preoperative mental health are independent predictors of back pain after surgery for idiopathic scoliosis. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE III.

Reoperation for complications within 90 days of minimally invasive glaucoma surgery. J Cataract Refract Surg 2021; 47:886-891. [PMID: 33315736 DOI: 10.1097/j.jcrs.0000000000000545] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/24/2020] [Accepted: 12/01/2020] [Indexed: 10/22/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To describe reoperations that occurred within 90 days of minimally invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS) at a single institution over a 30-month period. SETTING Tertiary care hospital. DESIGN Retrospective case series. METHODS Charts of adult patients who underwent trabecular microbypass stents, gel microstents, and goniotomy procedures (including gonioscopy-assisted transluminal trabeculotomy) from October 1, 2017, to March 15, 2020, at Wills Eye Hospital were examined. Outcome measures were unanticipated reoperations within the first 90 days after MIGS procedures and the complications that led to these reoperations. RESULTS A total of 448 MIGS procedures were performed on 436 eyes of 348 patients over a 30-month period by 6 glaucoma surgeons. Of these, 206 (46.0%) were trabecular microbypass stents (198 iStent/iStent inject and 8 Hydrus), 152 (33.9%) were gel microstents, and 90 (20.1%) were goniotomy procedures. Combined phacoemulsification took place in 256 eyes (58.7%). Reoperation within 90 days took place in 23 (5.3%) of 436 eyes, including 16 (10.5%) of 152 eyes in the gel microstent group, 4 (2.0%) of 198 eyes in iStent/iStent inject group, and 3 (3.3%) of 90 eyes in the goniotomy group. Indications for reoperation were elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) in 16 (69.6%) of 23 eyes, gel microstent tip exposure with wound leakage in 3 (13.0%) of 23 eyes, and early gel microstent encapsulation without elevated IOP in 1 (4.3%) of 23 eyes. Two (8.7%) of 23 eyes required reoperation for intraocular lens complications, whereas 1 (4.3%) of 23 eyes had elevated IOP and aphakia requiring reoperation. CONCLUSIONS The rate of reoperation within the first 90 days after MIGS was low. Elevated IOP and complications associated with gel microstents were the main indications for reoperation.

Abstract
STUDY DESIGN Retrospective cohort study. OBJECTIVE To compare the outcomes of patients with adult spinal deformity (ASD) following spinal fusion with the lowest instrumented vertebra (LIV) at L4/L5 versus S1/ilium. METHODS A multicenter ASD database was evaluated. Patients were categorized into 2 groups based on LIV levels-groups L (fusion to L4/L5) and S (fusion to S1/ilium). Both groups were propensity matched by age and preoperative radiographic alignments. Patient demographics, operative details, radiographic parameters, revision rates, and health-related quality of life (HRQOL) scores were compared. RESULTS Overall, 349 patients had complete data, with a mean follow-up of 46 months. Patients in group S (n = 311) were older and had larger sagittal and coronal plane deformities than those in group L (n = 38). After matching, 28 patients were allocated to each group with similar demographic, radiographic, and clinical parameters. Sagittal alignment restoration at postoperative week 6 was significantly better in group S than in group L, but it was similar in both groups at the 2-year follow-up. Fusion to S1/ilium involved a longer operating time, higher PJK rates, and greater PJK angles than that to L4/L5. There were no significant differences in the complication and revision rates between the groups. Both groups showed significant improvements in HRQOL scores. CONCLUSIONS Fusion to S1/ilium had better sagittal alignment restoration at postoperative week 6 and involved higher PJK rates and greater PJK angles than that to L4/L5. The clinical outcomes and rates of revision surgery and complications were similar between the groups.

Abstract
PURPOSE Objectives in scoliosis corrective surgery include restoration of normal sagittal and coronal parameters to achieve patient satisfaction. HRQLs improvements remain limited after corrective surgery. The aim of this study was to evaluate the HRQL subclass variability specific to the sagittal and coronal correction in adult scoliosis surgery. METHODS This multi-centre prospective analysis of consecutive adult spinal deformity (ASD) patients, from five European centres, only included multilevel instrumentation for scoliosis. d-(delta) values for each parameter represented pre to post-operative changes. Parameters included demographics, baseline, 1- and 2-year. HRQL outcomes (Oswestry disability index (ODI), Scoliosis Research Society (SRS)-22 and Short Form (SF36)), sagittal correction including relative spinopelvic alignment (dRSA) and coronal correction including major Cobb (dCobb) angles. RESULTS A total of 353 patients reached 1-year and 2-year follow up. All HRQL total scores significantly improved postoperatively, including ODI, SRS-22 and SF36. HRQL subclasses which displayed persistent improvements correlated to dRSA included sex-life, self-image, fatigue, vitality, social functioning. The only HRQL subclass improvement that correlated with dCobb was self-image. CONCLUSION Adult scoliosis surgery improves overall HRQL, having a minimal effect on each variable. Importantly, greater coronal deformity correction affects only greater self-image scores, whereas with greater sagittal correction there are many greater HRQL sub-class impacts. Correction and restoration of coronal balance is one of the surgical goals in adult scoliosis but the degree to which Cobb angle is corrected, apart from self-image, does not correlate with gains in sub-classes of HRQL. These results need to be taken into account when planning surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Data on timing of complications are important for accurate quality assessments. We sought to better define pre- and postdischarge complications occurring within 90 days of adult spinal deformity (ASD) surgery and quantify the effect of multiple complications on recovery. METHODS We performed a review of 1040 patients who underwent ASD surgery (age: 46 ± 23; body mass index: 25 ± 7, American Society of Anesthesiologists [ASA] score: 2.5 ± 0.6, levels: 10 ± 4, revision: 9%, 3-column osteotomy: 13%). We assessed pre- and postdischarge complications and risk factors for isolated versus multiple complications, as well as the impact of multiple complications. RESULTS The 90-day complication rate was 17.7%. 85 patients (8.2%) developed a predischarge complication, most commonly ileus (12%), and pulmonary embolism (PE; 7.1%). The most common causes of predischarge unplanned reoperation were neurologic injury (12.9%) and surgical site drainage (8.2%). Predictors of a predischarge complication included smoking (odds ratio [OR]: 2.2, P = .02), higher ASA (OR: 1.8, P = .008), hypertension (HTN; OR: 2.0, P = .004), and iliac fixation (OR: 4.3, P < .001). Ninety-nine patients (9.5%) developed a postdischarge complication, most commonly infection (34%), instrumentation failure (13.4%), and proximal junctional failure (10.4%). Predictors of postdischarge complications included chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (OR: 3.6, P < .0001), congestive heart failure (OR: 4.4, P = .016), HTN (OR: 2.3, P < .0001), and multiple rod construct (OR: 1.8, P = .02). Patients who developed multiple complications (9.3%) had a longer length of stay, and increased risk for readmission and unplanned reoperation. CONCLUSIONS Knowledge regarding timing of postoperative complications in relation to discharge may better inform quality improvement measures. PE and implant-related complications play a prominent role in perioperative complications and need for readmission, with several modifiable risk factors identified. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level 3. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Advances in surgical techniques and instrumentation have improved postoperative radiographic and clinical outcomes after ASD surgery. The rate of complications after complex ASD surgery remains high, both at early postoperative and long term follow-up. This study reviews complications within 90 days of surgery, with an assessment of patient and surgical risk factors. We found that modifiable risk factors for early complications after ASD surgery include COPD, and current smoking. The data presented in this study also provide surgeons with knowledge of the most common complications encountered after ASD surgery, to aid in preoperative patient discussion.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recently published data suggest that showing patients operated on for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis or kyphosis their preoperative and postoperative photographs may enhance their satisfaction and self-image as measured by Scoliosis Research Society Health-Related Quality of Life Questionnaire (SRS-22) scores. No data exist for adult spinal deformity (ASD) surgery. The aim of this study is to determine the effect on patient postoperative satisfaction and self-image of showing adult deformity patients their preoperative and postoperative whole body photographs. METHODS This was a nonconcurrent prospective study. Patients operated on for ASD with a minimum 2-year postoperative follow-up who had preoperative full-body photographs taken by a professional photographer were included. Two follow-up visits were arranged 7 days apart. In the first visit, patients completed the SRS-22 questionnaire, and full-body standing photographs were taken. In the second visit, patients were asked to complete again questions 4, 6, 10, 14, 19 (self-image), 21, and 22 (satisfaction) of the SRS-22 after seeing their preoperative and postoperative full-body photographs. RESULTS Thirty patients (28 female) were included. The median age at surgery was 50 years (26-76). The median follow-up was 51 months (24-120). SRS-22 results at first visit were: activity 2.79 ± 0.75; self-image 2.71 ± 0.82; pain 2.53 ± 1.10; mental health 3.08 ± 0.77; satisfaction 3.46 ± 1.20; global 2.74 ± 0.72. SRS22 results at second visit were: self-image 2.9 ± 0.75; satisfaction 4.02 ± 0.97. After seeing the preoperative and final follow-up photographs, patients experienced an improvement in SRS-22 self-image (P = .000) and satisfaction domains (P = .011). CONCLUSIONS In patients operated on for ASD, showing preoperative and postoperative photographs improves patient satisfaction with surgery and self-image. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE 3. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Our results could be a starting point for introducing full-body clinical photographs as a routine clinical tool in adult deformity patients undergoing surgery.
