Abstract
CONCLUSIONS: Kyphotic segmental alignment (CARDS D) is a relatively rare subset of degenerative spondylolisthesis. Our results indicate that CARDS type D may be a clinically distinct subset of DS characterized by worse preoperative back pain. These results further validate the usefulness of the CARDS classification system. Future studies with larger sample sizes may identify other factors predictive of specific subtypes of DS as well as the prognostic value of these radiographic subtypes. FDA DEVICE/DRUG STATUS: This abstract does not discuss or include any applicable devices or drugs.
