Fig. 5

During growing rod treatment, the cervical sagittal balance changes in the patient with PJK. (It is an 8-year-old male patient diagnosed with idiopathic EOS. After the 3rd distraction, scoliosis and hyperkyphosis are corrected well. In the final follow-up, he has PJK above the growing rod. Sagittal cervical alignment change: C2-C7 CL increases from 24.6° to 62.7°, T1 slope increases from 47.2° to 67.7°, and C2-C7 SVA increases from 24.3 mm to 34.2 mm.)
