NCT05485636

Brief Summary

This is a retrospective, observational multi-center study. The participants undergone lumbar spine surgery for degenerative lumbar scoliosis and followed up for at least 2 years are retrospectively enrolled from 8 centers. This study mainly focuses on the short-term and long-term outcomes of lumbar surgery in participants with degenerative lumbar scoliosis, and that how much the surgical outcomes are related with demographic, surgical, and radiographic features before and after surgery. The objective is to offer more detailed clinical evidence to guide the surgical strategy development for degenerative lumbar scoliosis.

Study Population

In the orthopaedic department of the eight medical centers, patients undergone spinal surgery for degenerative lumbar scoliosis are invited to participate in the study.

You may qualify if:

  • age ≥ 60 years old
  • diagnosed with degenerative lumbar scoliosis with X-ray before surgery
  • Cobb angle of the major curve ≥ 20°
  • with signs and/or symptoms of low back pain and/or leg pain, torso imbalance, and spinal nerve compression
  • followed up for at least 2 years after the surgery

You may not qualify if:

  • scoliosis caused by infection, trauma or tumor.
