Sagittal spinal pelvic alignment.
The goal of any ambulatory patient is to maintain a horizontal gaze with the least amount of energy expenditure. With progressive deformity, and in particular sagittal malalignment, significant compensatory mechanisms must be used to achieve this goal. Each pelvis dictates the amount of lumbar lordosis required through its morphometric parameter pelvic incidence. The pelvis may compensate for d...
متن کاملSagittal spinal alignment and ambulation
A relationship between spinal deformity and ambulation is yet to be clarified. We hypothesized that undesirable spino-pelvic alignment affects walking ability. The purpose of present study is to clarify an influence of spinopelvic alignments on walking ability. Consecutive patients who visited our institution between October 2011 to September 2012 were retrospectively surveyed. The cases of neu...
متن کاملMeasurement of spinal sagittal curvatures using the laser triangulation method.
The purpose of the first part of the study was to establish the variability of repeated measurements in different measuring conditions. In the second part, we performed in a large number of patients, a measurement of thoracic kyphosis and lumbar lordosis and compared them to age, gender, and level of nourishment. In the first part, measurements were performed on a plastic model of the back of a...
متن کاملDoes lateral whole-spine radiograph taken by fists-on-clavicle position represent reliable global sagittal spinal alignment in adolescent patients?
Introduction Evaluation of global sagittal spinal alignment has been recognized to be important for treating spinal deformity in recent years. Global sagittal alignment was evaluated on the lateral whole-spine radiograph and “fists-onclavicle position” was widely used as arm position during radiographic acquisition. Several studies reported the validity of the fits-on-clavicle position in adult...
متن کاملThe Influence of Natural Head Position on the Cervical Sagittal Alignment
INTRODUCTION This study investigated the relationship between the parameters related to the natural head position and cervical segmental angles and alignment of patients with neck pain. MATERIAL AND METHODS The lateral radiographs of the cervical spine were collected from 103 patients and were used to retrospectively analyze the correlation between the natural head position, cervical local sa...
