Purpose A comprehensive understanding of normative sagittal profile is necessary for adult
spinal deformity. Roussouly described four sagittal alignment types based on sacral slope …

Study Design. A cross-sectional radiographic study. Objective. The aim of this study was to
establish the age-and sex-related normative values of whole-body sagittal alignment in …

OBJECTIVE Sagittal malalignment requires higher energy expenditure to maintain an erect
posture. Because the clinical impact of sagittal alignment is affected by both the severity of …

Study Design. Cross-sectional cohort study. Objective. Describe age-stratified normative
values of traditional and novel sagittal alignment parameters. Summary of Background Data …

Abstract Purpose Although the Roussouly classification of common variants in spinal sagittal
alignment is well accepted, no studies have implemented it in an asymptomatic adult …

OBJECTIVE In adult spinal deformity (ASD), quantifying preoperative lower-extremity (LE)
compensation is important in formulating an operative plan to achieve optimal global sagittal …

Sagittal alignment, often misrepresented as sagittal balance, describes the ideal and
“normal” alignment in the sagittal plane, resulting from the interplay between various organic …

Study Design. Prospective study. Objective. To map the healthy standing alignment of the
adult spine, grouped according to Roussouly curve types, using both horizontal offset …

Study Design. Multicenter Cohort. Objective. Assess normative values of sagittal spinal and
lower extremity alignment in asymptomatic volunteers stratified by age and gender …

Background The objective of this study was to describe and classify common variations and
compensation mechanisms in the sagittal alignment of the spine with lumbar degenerative …
