Correlation analysis of the PI-LL mismatch according to the pelvic incidence from a database of 468 asymptomatic volunteers.

Purpose: Previous studies on adults with degenerative scoliosis (ADS) have been fixed the threshold of PI-LL mismatch less than 10° for achieving good clinical outcomes. Recent studies discussed that PI-LL mismatch should consider individual pelvic incidence (PI) and should be set first in a normal population. The purpose of this study is to assess the variability of PI-LL mismatch according to PI in an asymptomatic population.
