BACKGROUND: Patients with severe kyphotic deformity (Cobb > 100°) secondary to ankylosing spondylitis (AS) occasionally cannot undergo corrective surgery in the prone position. Osteotomy in the lateral position might provide a possible solution. In this study, we aim to evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of staged osteotomy in the lateral position for the treatment of AS-related severe kyphosis with a minimum of 2-year follow-up. METHODS: In total, 23 patients who underwent staged osteotomy in the lateral position from October 2015 to June 2017 were analyzed. In the first stage of surgery, all but one patient underwent a single-level Ponte osteotomy, which was followed by a pedicle subtraction osteotomy in the second stage. Mean follow-up was 30.8 ± 4.6 months. Global kyphosis (GK), thoracic kyphosis (TK), lumbar lordosis (LL), sagittal vertical axis (SVA), osteotomized vertebra intervertebral angle (OVI), chin-brow vertical angle (CBVA), Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) score and Scoliosis Research Society-22 Patient Questionnaire (SRS-22) were all compared pre- and postoperation. RESULTS: All kyphosis parameters were significantly improved (all P < 0.05). GK was corrected from 115.0 ± 13.4° to 46.5 ± 9.0° postoperatively, with a mean correction of 68.5°. SVA was improved from 21.2 ± 5.1 cm to 5.1 ± 1.8 cm postoperatively. After surgery, CBVA was adjusted from 64.1 ± 23.2° to 5.7 ± 10.6° and OVI was changed from 9.0 ± 2.7° to - 20.1 ± 5.6°. Both the ODI and SRS-22 show...
