Abstract

Study Design: Retrospective study. Objectives: To analyze the change in acetabular anteversion (AA) after lumbar pedicle subtraction osteotomy (PSO) in ankylosing spondylitis (AS) patients with thoracolumbar kyphosis who have already undergone total hip arthroplasty (THA). Methods: AS patients with thoracolumbar kyphosis following lumbar PSO from January 2005 to January 2020 were retrospectively reviewed. Only the patients performed with THA prior to the PSO were included. AA was measured on the full-length standing posterior-anterior radiographs using the ellipse method. Results: Twenty patients (34 hips) with a mean age of 36.8 years (range, 22 to 63 years) were included. After lumbar PSO, AA was reduced from 18.59° to 5.85° ( P < 0.001). Postoperative change in AA was correlated with the spinal deformity correction. Additionally, the change in AA postoperatively was correlated with pelvic incidence (PI) (R = 0.346, P = 0.045). Although the postoperative change in sagittal vertical axis (SVA) was larger in the patients after L2 or L3 PSO (153.97 mm vs 70.03 mm, P = 0.006), no difference was found in the postoperative change in AA (12.83° vs 10.96°, P = 0.540) compared with the patients following L1 PSO. Conclusions: AA was significantly decreased following lumbar PSO and the postoperative change in AA was correlated with the magnitude of spinal deformity correction. Notably, the effect of osteotomy level on the postoperative change in AA was limited in the AS patients underwent 1-level PSO.
