Spine Deform
September 2025
Department of Orthopedics and Sports Medicine, Erasmus MC, University Medical Center Rotterdam, Dr Molewaterplein 40, 3015 GD, Rotterdam, The Netherlands.
Purpose: Screening for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) using the Adam Forward Bending Test (AFBT) remains controversial, resulting in the discontinuation of scoliosis screening in the Netherlands. This study aims to validate the Scolioscope, a simplified version of the Scoliometer, for detecting scoliosis in a home setting.
Methods: A validation study was conducted at the orthopedic outpatient clinic of Erasmus Medical Center Sophia Children's Hospital in Rotterdam, the Netherlands.

Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine Rehabilitation, Jiangbei Branch of The First Hospital Affiliated to Army Medical University (Third Military Medical University), Chongqing, China.
Background: Complex interbody fusion remains challenging, while traditional surgical instruments are not suitable for complex spinal deformities. Porous tantalum (Ta) has excellent osteogenic properties, but there is currently a lack of research on its application in cervical thoracic interbody fusion.
Objective: To introduce the application of selective electron beam melting (SEBM) 3D printing technology in customized porous Ta vertebral fusion implants and evaluate its mid-term clinical efficacy in complex cervical thoracic fusion surgery.
Purpose: This study aims to validate the usefulness of T10-pelvic angle (T10PA) in predicting pelvic tilt (PT) restoration, proximal junctional kyphosis (PJK) development, and clinical outcomes after adult spinal deformity (ASD) surgery.
Methods: This retrospective study included 213 ASD patients who underwent fusion from the lower thoracic spine (T9 or T10) to the pelvis. T10PA was measured on 6-week postoperative radiographs as the angle between the center of T10 and the hip center, and from the hip center to the midpoint of the S1 upper endplate.
