Abstract:
The major focus of realignment in adult spinal deformity (ASD) surgery has been on the sagittal plane, and less emphasis has been given to the coronal plane. In light of this overlooked area within ASD surgery, we aimed to refocus the narrative on coronal alignment in ASD surgery. The objectives of the current narrative review were to (1) define coronal alignment and discuss existing measurements; (2) report the incidence and prevalence of coronal malalignment (CM); (3) discuss the impact of CM on clinical outcomes; and (4) describe our preferred treatment algorithm of surgical correction of CM in ASD.
