Possible Causes

Scoliosis

To avoid proximal junctional kyphosis in treatments with growing rods, excessive thoracic kyphosis correction should not be performed. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

The senior group had significant better correction rates of severe main curve ( 70 ) and thoracic kyphosis than the junior group (P 0.05). [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

The correction achieved was satisfactory in the coronal plane, but the correction of the thoracic kyphosis was insufficient to compensate for the cervical hyperextension. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
