Age-dependent associations between spinopelvic alignment and foot axes: A retrospective radiographic study
Spinopelvic alignment demonstrates measurable associations with radiographic foot alignment, supporting the concept of the spine-pelvis-lower-limb unit as a biomechanically integrated system. Clinically, these findings suggest that integrated, chain oriented assessment and management strategies (considering both spinal and foot alignment, particularly with aging) may be relevant when evalu ating patients with coexisting spine and foot disorders.
