Achieving optimal spinal alignment is known to be a key factor in improving patient outcomes following adult spinal deformity surgery. Significant advances have been made in better understanding the optimal patient specific alignment. However, technical execution of the realignment plan and confirmation intraoperatively can be technically challenging. In this webinar recording, faculty focus on the safe execution of the realignment plan and obtaining confirmation intraoperatively. Additionally, you will learn strategies for refining correction if the initial realignment falls short of preoperative goals.
