Study Design: Retrospective analysis of prospectively collected data.
Objective: To identify the best definition of primary anteverted pelvis in the setting of adult spine deformity (ASD), and to investigate whether this is a pathologic setting that requires surgical correction.
Summary Of Background Data: While pelvic retroversion has been thoroughly investigated, pelvic anteversion (AP) is a far lesser discussed topic.
Introduction: Surgery to correct spinal deformities in scoliosis involves the use of contoured rods to reshape the spine and correct its curvatures. It is crucial to bend these rods appropriately to achieve the best possible correction. However, there is limited research on how the rod bending process relates to spinal shape in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis surgery.

Objective: The authors performed the postural analysis commonly scheduled when evaluating sagittal balance in a vertebra-by-vertebra manner by enrolling an asymptomatic population. They measured the position and angulation of each vertebra to reveal those for which the spatial positioning could be relevant during spinal surgeries.
Objective: To identify the different apex and transitional vertebra according to the shape of the pelvis of individuals despite their difference in sagittal alignment using our measurement system.
Methods: Full-spine X-rays using EOS in standard stand-position of 99 volunteers were selected (47 women, 52 men, mean age 31 years old). Validated 3D reconstruction technique allows extraction of spinopelvic parameters, and position and rotation of each vertebra and lumbar disks.
