dc.description.abstract | Study designRetrospective review of prospectively collected data.ObjectiveAssess outcomes of adult spinal deformity (ASD) surgery performed by one versus two attending surgeons.Summary of background dataASD centers have developed two attending teams to improve efficiency; their effects on complications and outcomes have not been reported.MethodsPatients with ASD with five or more levels fused and more than 2-year follow-up were included. Estimated blood loss (EBL), length of stay (LOS), operating room (OR) time, complications, quality of life (Health Related Quality of Life), and x-rays were analyzed. Outcomes were compared between one-surgeon (1S) and two-surgeon (2S) centers. A deformity-matched cohort was analyzed.ResultsA total of 188 patients in 1S and 77 in 2S group were included. 2S group patients were older and had worse deformity based on the Scoliosis Research Society-Schwab classification (P < 0.05). There were no significant differences in levels fused (P = 0.57), LOS (8.7 vs 8.9 days), OR time (445.9 vs 453.2 min), or EBL (2008 vs 1898 cm; P > 0.05). 2S patients had more three-column osteotomies (3CO; P < 0.001) and used less bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP-2; 79.9% vs 15.6%; P < 0.001). The 2S group had fewer intraoperative complications (1.3% vs 11.1%; P = 0.006). Postoperative (6 wk to 2 yr) complications were more frequent in the 2S group (4.8% vs 15.6%; P < 0.002). After matching for deformity, there were no differences in (9.1 vs 10.1 days), OR time (467.8 vs 508.4 min), or EBL (3045 vs 2247 cm; P = 0.217). 2S group used less BMP-2 (20.6% vs 84.8%; P < 0.001), had fewer intraoperative complications (P = 0.015) but postoperative complications due to instrumentation failure/pseudarthrosis were more frequent (P < 0.01).ConclusionNo significant differences were found in LOS, OR time, or EBL between the 1S and 2S groups, even when matching for severity of deformity. 2S group had less BMP-2 use, fewer intraoperative complications but more postoperative complications.Level of evidence2. | |
