This study introduced a surgical technique of multiple-hook fixation for fixating previous multilevel fusion masses in revision spinal deformity surgeries and then evaluated its outcomes.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>\n<jats:sec>\n<jats:title>METHODS<\/jats:title>\n<jats:p>Patients with a previous multilevel fusion mass who underwent revision corrective surgery down to the lumbosacral junction were retrospectively studied. Multiple hooks were used to fixate the fusion mass and linked to distal pedicle screws in the lumbosacral-pelvic complex. Radiological and clinical outcomes were evaluated.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>\n<jats:sec>\n<jats:title>RESULTS<\/jats:title>\n<jats:p>The charts of 8 consecutive patients with spinal deformity were retrospectively reviewed (7 women, 1 man; mean age 56 years). The primary diagnoses included flat-back deformity (6 cases), thoracolumbar kyphoscoliosis (1 case), and lumbar spondylosis secondary to a previous scoliosis fusion (1 case). The mean follow-up duration was 30.1 months. Operations were performed at T3\/4\u2013ilium (4 cases), T7\u2013ilium (1 case), T6\u2013S1 (1 case), T12\u2013S1 (1 case), and T9\u2013L5 (1 case). Of 8 patients, 7 had sagittal imbalance preoperatively, and their mean C-7 plumb line improved from 10.8 \u00b1 2.9 cm preoperatively to 5.3 \u00b1 3.6 cm at final follow-up (p = 0.003). The mean lumbar lordosis of these patients at final follow-up was significantly greater than that preoperatively (35.2\u00b0 \u00b1 12.6\u00b0 vs 16.8\u00b0 \u00b1 11.8\u00b0, respectively; p = 0.005). Two perioperative complications included osteotomy-related leg weakness in 1 patient and a stitch abscess in another.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>\n<jats:sec>\n<jats:title>CONCLUSIONS<\/jats:title>\n<jats:p>The multiple-hook technique provides a viable alternative option for fixating a previous multilevel fusion mass in revision spinal deformity surgery.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.3171\/2016.8.spine16432","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2016,12,9]],"date-time":"2016-12-09T15:38:13Z","timestamp":1481297893000},"page":"368-373","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":9,"title":["Multiple-hook fixation in revision spinal deformity surgery for patients with a previous multilevel fusion mass: technical note and preliminary outcomes"],"prefix":"10.3171","volume":"26","author":[{"given":"Ning","family":"Liu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Spine Service, Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston, Massachusetts;"},{"name":"Washington University in St. Louis, Brown School, St. Louis, Missouri"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Kirkham B.","family":"Wood","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Spine Service, Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston, Massachusetts;"},{"name":"Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Stanford University Medical Center, Redwood City, California; and"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1754","reference":[{"key":"b1-spine16432","series-title":"J Bone Joint Surg Am","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"454","DOI":"10.2106\/00004623-200303000-00009","article-title":"Pedicle subtraction osteotomy for the treatment of fixed sagittal imbalance.","volume":"85-A","author":"Bridwell KH,","year":"2003","unstructured":"Bridwell KH, Lewis SJ, Lenke LG, Baldus C, Blanke K: Pedicle subtraction osteotomy for the treatment of fixed sagittal imbalance..
