The aim of this study was to explore the role of intra-operative T1 tilt, among other shoulder parameters as a potential parameter to predict post-operative SB in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) patients.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>A retrospective review of AIS patients with structural thoracic curves with minimum 2 year follow up was conducted from a single tertiary center. Standing pre-operative, 1st erect, 1 year and 2-year follow-up; and intra-operative final prone radiographs were reviewed along with clinical data. Patients were stratified into 2 cohorts: Group A-Final intra-operative T1 tilt ≤5° and Group B-Final intra-operative T1 tilt >5°. These groups were compared for post-operative SB as a whole and separately for patients with baseline right or left shoulder high and if UIV was T2 or T3/T4. Patients with optimal SB (Radiographic shoulder height (RSH) <2 cm) at 2 years were compared to sub-optimal SB (RSH ≥ 2 cm) with respect to multiple SB variables.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>55 patients (mean age 15.1 years-old, 43 F, mean BMI 22, mean thoracic Cobb-49.8°) were included. Based on Lenke curve types, there were 13 patients with type 1A, 10 patients with 1B, 12 patients with 1C, 7 patients with 2A, 4 patients with 2B and 9 patients with type 3C. T1 tilt was significantly correlated with RSH, Clavicle angle difference (CAD), First Rib Angle (FRA), and UIV tilt at first erect, 1-year, and 2-year post-op radiographs (p < 0.05 for all).
