Abstract

The purpose of this study was to asses the relationship between iliac rotational asymmetry and the magnitude and pattern of the lumbar curve in patients with idiopathic scoliosis. We used the bisacro-iliac-ischial angle to differenciate between IRA and intra-pelvic torsional deformity. The results of this study supports the concept that the pelvis may be involved in the pathogenesis of idiopathic scoliosis.
