Impact of Global Sagittal Spinal Alignment on Degenerative Lumbar Scoliosis
The incidence of DLS in middle-aged and older patients is related to PI, and the coronal Cobb angle is positively correlated with PI and PI-LL and is negatively correlated with LL. Coronal deformity could be affected by both pelvic orientation and sagittal spine alignment.
