Lumbosacral transitional vertebrae are associated with decreased pelvic tilt but not with acetabular morphologies

Objectives and questions: Lumbosacral transitional vertebrae (LSTV) are common congenital variants suspected to cause low back pain (LBP), known as Bertolotti’s Syndrome. Studies have described the effect of LSTV on acetabular orientation and pelvic tilt, but the influence on acetabular and femoral [for full text, please go to the a.m. URL]
