Purpose The current study aimed to find any association between various spinopelvic parameters and the quality of life in patients with degenerative lumbar scoliosis (DLS) measured as per the Oswestry disability index (ODI) and visual analog scale (VAS) in the Indian population. Methods We included 20 DLS patients of more than 40 years with a Cobb angle of more than 10° and without any trauma, tumour, infection, or congenital scoliosis presented in our tertiary care centre in the study. The VAS and ODI were calculated for each patient.

The goal of anatomic ACL reconstruction is to tailor the procedure to each patient's anatomic, biomechanical and functional demands to provide the best possible outcome. The shift from single bundle to double bundle technique and also from transtibial to transportal method has been to provide near anatomic tunnel positions.
