“…Sacral slope measured 39.05 ( ±6.26) in our study, was compared to values of 41.3 ( ±11.01) in the South study, 6 37.4 ( ±6.6) in the Surat study, 7 and 35.999 ( ±7.53) in the North study. 5 The sacral slope was statistically different between our study and the north and south studies with p-values of <0.01 and 0.02 respectively.…”

Background: Restoration of spinopelvic balance during spinal surgery is very important to ensure a good outcome. Many studies have been conducted to define the normal ranges, examining the correlation between these individual parameters and their relation with spinal parameters of thoracic kyphosis and lumbar lordosis. The ranges, specific to individual ethnicities, is very essential to restore the sagittal balance in patients suffering from spinal degenerative conditions. Hence this study aims to define the average ranges of relevant spinopelvic parameters in the adult population of Indian origin. Methods: A observational cross sectional study was conducted in 130 healthy volunteers in Mumbai without having any spine, hip or pelvis pathology. Spinopelvic parameters like Pelvic Incidence(PI), Sacral Slope(SS) and Pelvic Tilt(PT) were studied and compared between various other similar studies with patients of different ethnicities. The correlation of those parameters with each other was also evaluated. Results: The mean value of PI was 51.50(±6.85 ), that of SS was 39.17 (±6.26 ) and for PT it was 12.32 (±5.41 ). These values were statistically significant between both sexes for PI and PT. The strongest positive correlation among the parameters was between pelvic incidence and sacral slope, with a r-value of 0.668. Comparison of our study with similar studies within the country (Chennai, Delhi and Surat) showed statistically significant differences in PT and SS of all three studies while PI was not significant when compared with the Surat study. Conclusion: There appears to be considerable variation of the values of the spinopelvic parameters as determined by various studies due to ethnic variations. Further studies should be done with larger samples and directed towards early detection of individuals at risk of developing degenerative spinal disorders with sagittal imbalance, so that interventions can be made at an earlier stage.

“…Lumbar lordosis is becoming an increasingly important function and clinical outcome metric. Problems with proper lordotic alignment can lead to pathologic changes in the spine as a result of weight bearing and hasten the degeneration of functional motion units [2] . The lumbar spine is supported by the first sacral vertebra, an important part of the pelvis.…”

“…Because of the interdependent biomechanics of the pelvis and the lumbar spine, problems with any region can have an effect on the other. Pelvic shape and orientation may impact degenerative changes in the lumbar spine due to altered biomechanical forces [2][3][4] . Every person's unique anatomy is described by their sacropelvic morphology.…”

To describe the structure and position of the sacropelvis, one typically uses terms like sacral slope, pelvic tilt, or pelvic incidence. Changes in the pelvis' shape and direction can impact the progression of degenerative disc disease in the lower back. Consequently, we investigated the relationships between the degrees of disc degeneration in young people and several sagittal spinopelvic features. Methods: A hospital-based cross-sectional study enrolled fifty individuals. Participants reported either back or leg pain and had magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings of prolapsed discs. This study was conducted at
