Range of instrumentation and complications in the surgical treatment of spinal deformity in patients with Parkinson's Disease

Purpose Parkinson’s Disease (PD) patients are a high-risk population in adult spinal surgery and there is no general consensus regarding the surgical correction of spinal deformity in these patients. We perform long fusion for PD spinal deformity in our institution and this study is a retrospective assessment of the radiological and clinical outcomes of posterior spinal fusion with instrumentation for spinal deformity in Parkinson’s disease (PD).
