BACKGROUND: Over the last several decades, significant advances have occurred in the
assessment and management of spinal deformity. OBJECTIVE: The primary focus of this …

In the anatomy of a normal spine, due to the curvatures in various regions, the C7 plumb line
(C7PL) passes through the sacrum so that the head is centered over the pelvic-ball and …

Background Restoration of three-dimensional (3D) alignment is critical in correcting patients
with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis using posterior spinal fusion (PSF). However, current …

Introduction and aim In order to improve surgical planning of sagittal correction in AIS, we
proposed a new sagittal classification—Abelin-Genevois et al. Eur Spine J (27 (9): 2192 …

This study aimed to identify the differentiating parameters of the spinal curves' 2D
projections through a hierarchical classification of the 3D spinal curve in adolescent …

Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) is a three-dimensional (3D) deformity of the spinal
column. For progressive deformities in AIS, the spinal fusion surgery aims to correct and …

We developed and used a deep learning tool to process biplanar radiographs of 9,832 non-
surgical patients suffering from spinal deformities, with the aim of reporting the statistical …

Purpose Thoracic hypokyphosis following AIS correction may be associated with reduced
lumbar lordosis with potential adverse effects on the global sagittal balance. In the present …

Study Design. A systematic review and meta-analysis. Objective. The aim of this study was
to determine the differences in the sagittal spinopelvic parameters between the nonscoliotic …

Objective The purpose of this study was to investigate differences between measurements of
spine on two-dimensional (2D) radiography and three-dimensional (3D) computed …
