Video Summary
In this video, the speaker discusses the importance of spinal pelvic parameters in understanding adult deformity and achieving successful surgical outcomes. The speaker discloses their background as a brain tumor researcher and surgeon, and explains that they found appeal in reconstructive spinal procedures. They mention that they often wonder what the public and anesthesia think when witnessing these surgeries. The speaker references a Dilbert cartoon that humorously relates removing vital organs to being a spine surgeon or a serial killer. They explain that adult deformity encompasses more than just scoliosis, and showcase various cases of iatrogenic deformities. They emphasize the importance of spinal alignment and how it affects overall health and function. The speaker discusses pelvic parameters, including pelvic incidence, pelvic tilt, and sacral slope, and explains how they contribute to spinal alignment. They highlight the correlation between these parameters and health-related quality of life measures. The speaker concludes by discussing the significance of sagittal spinal pelvic malalignment and the importance of surgical goals and planning for successful outcomes.
