The preoperative and postoperative spinal pelvic parameters were measured using X\u2010rays. Clinical symptoms were measured using the Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) and a visual analog scale (VAS). The patients' quality of life was evaluated using Short Form\u201012. Length of stay, postoperative complications, and revision surgery were recorded.
