dc.description.abstractPurpose: The purpose of our study is to assess short and long term effects of posterior spinal fusion on shoulder balance and determine the correlation between osseous and soft tissue radiographic parameters utilizing a larger sample size than previously studied. This information could potentially guide patient counseling of expectations regarding postoperative outcome and assist surgeons in optimizing shoulder balance correction during arthrodesis. Methods: This study will be a retrospective, chart review of patients treated for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis with spinal fusion at a single center. We will be collecting radiographic measurements to assess pre- and postoperative spinal, thoracic, and shoulder alignments. Research team members will individually collect data each patient’s imaging with at minimum 2 years of postoperative radiographic assessment. Data will be stored in REDCap. Results: Conclusions:
