N2  - The spine in patients with a variety of spinal deformities. It is important to be  able to recognize the type and underlying cause of the deformity so that the most  appropriate osteotomy can be chosen.Sometimes they are needed for correction  of severe rigid scheuermann{u2019}s kyphosis.The surgeon performing a spinal  osteotomy should attempt to correct sagittal alignment to at least 25{u00B0} of lumbar  lordosis. To achieve this level of lordosis in the lumber spine, any hooks used in  the lumber spine should be put under compression, and distraction should be  avoided. Furthermore the surgeon should attempt to correct plumb coronal  alignment to <2.5 cm. In this way a predictable improvement in functional  outcome can be expected with the amount of deformity correction achieved. An  estimation of the degree of the correction obtained intraoperatively is difficult  despite intraoperative portable radiographs, and as a result, there is tendency to  overestimate the degree of correction, especially in the sagittal plane
