Abstract

S1 pedicle subtraction osteotomies (PSOs) are indicated in patients with fixed high-grade L5-S1 spondylolisthesis or kyphosis secondary to a sacral fracture who present with severe sagittal imbalance. Unlike lumbar PSOs sacral osteotomies are rare and there is a paucity of literature outlining techniques. Here we present the indications planning technique and outcomes for S1 PSOs.
