Abstract:Background: Pelvic incidence (PI), a parameter related to the ideal spinopelvic alignment, is a morphological parameter that is usually considered fixed, but the PI's growth during adolescence has been reported. We investigated the peak PI velocity during adolescence and describe the relationship between increasing PI and changes in the morphology of the pelvis and sacrum. Methods: We measured standing height (SH) and radiological anatomical parameters including pelvic height (PH), pelvic width (PW), sacral wi… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
