Abstract
Aim: In order for a person to stand in a balanced way, the pelvis and spine must be in harmony. The aim of this study was to determine the normal ranges of spinopelvic parameters in children and adolescents in Türkiye. Material and Method: In our study, computed tomography images of 1018 healthy 7-17 year olds were examined. As a result of this examination, sacrum pubic incidence, lumbar lordosis, sacral slope, sacral kyphosis, pelvic tilt and pelvic incidence were measured. Results: The sacrum pubic incidence was 58.71±6.17°, sacral slope 37.26±5.77, lumbar lordosis 42.98±8.06°, sacral kyphosis 21.27±9.96°, pelvic incidence 46.77±6.38, and pelvic tilt 9.51±5.06°. The calculations revealed that, with age, all parameters except pelvic tilt increased significantly. A statistically significant difference was found between the age groups. Conclusion: The results of this study will contribute to the existing literature and may give clinicians insight into sagittal corrections in spine and pelvic surgery.
