Author Correction: Sagittal age-adjusted score (SAAS) for adult spinal deformity (ASD) more effectively predicts surgical outcomes and proximal junctional kyphosis than previous classifications.

Abstract

In Fig. 4 of this article signs for points associated in all 3 components are incorrect and should be reversed, e.g. + 2 should be − 2 and vise versa; Fig. 4 should have appeared as shown below. The original article has been corrected

Peter Passias

Professor of Orthopaedic Surgery

Throughout my medical career, I have remained dedicated to improving my patients' quality of life. As a specialist in adult cervical and spinal deformity surgery, I understand the significant impact our interventions have on individuals suffering from debilitating pain and physical and mental health challenges. Spinal deformity surgery merges the complexities of spinal biomechanics with the needs of an aging population. My research focuses on spinal alignment, biomechanics, innovative surgical techniques, and health economics to ensure value-based care that enhances patient outcomes.
