Background Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is a chronic inflammatory disease primarily affecting the axial skeleton, including the sacroiliac joints, costovertebral joints, and the spine. Patients with AS found to have an alter gait pattern. The purpose of this study was to investigate biomechanical alterations in gait after surgical correction in a patient with severe kyphosis from AS. Methods A case report in controlled laboratory study, a pretest-posttest design. A 20 year-old male presented with severe sagittal imbalance and inability to stand erect due to AS. He presented with thoracic kyphosis of 70°, lumbar kyphosis of 25°, and pelvic incidence of 43°. The patient had a complex spinal reconstruction with 84° of sagittal correction, normalizing his sagittal alignment. Gait analysis was performed the day before surgery and one month post surgery, including three-dimensional kinematics, ground reaction forces, and electromyography outcomes.
