Abstract Objective To report the clinical results and surgical tactics of spinal osteotomy for ankylosing spondylitis (AS) kyphosis based on the experiences of 428 patients. Methods From January 2003 to January 2015, a total of 428 patients suffering from AS kyphosis who underwent a one- or two-level pedicle subtraction osteotomy (PSO) or vertebral column decancellation (VCD) osteotomy in our hospital were reviewed. Pre- and postoperative radiological parameters and the chin-brow vertical angle (CBVA) were measured. Intraoperative, postoperative, and general complications were recorded. Results All patients could walk with horizontal vision and lie on their backs postoperatively. The pre- and postoperative average global kyphosis (GK) angles were corrected from 82.6 to 12.7° (p = 0.000) in the two-level group and from 55.8 to 9.6° (p = 0.000) in the one-level group, respectively. The mean sagittal vertical axis (SVA) improved from 29.4 to 8 cm (p = 0.000) in the two-level group and from 18.0 to 4.3 cm (p = 0.000) in the one-level group. The CBVA improved from 68.3 to 8.2° (p = 0.000) in the two-level group and from 46.2 to 4.2° (p = 0.000) in the one-level group. Although no major acute complications such as death or complete paralysis occurred, the complication rate was 6.5% in the one-level group and 23.6% in the two-level group. Conclusion Spinal osteotomy, such as PSO and VCD, can improve the quality of life of AS patients as well as correct kyphotic deformities. The one-level spinal osteotomy showed a lower complication rate, while two-level spinal osteotomy was a relatively aggressive procedure that was more suitable in correcting severe AS kyphotic deformities.
