Abstract
Two years after PSIF, 6.4% of patients with AIS exhibit radiographic coronal decompensation. Although this study did not demonstrate a significant association between the relationship of LIV and LEV and decompensation 2 years postoperation, results of this study indicate that skeletal immaturity, male gender, and less correction of the major curve may be related to higher rates of coronal decompensation.
