Gait and PostureRésumé
Patients with adult spinal deformities (ASD) are known to have altered postural alignment affecting their quality of life and activities of daily living, especially gait. The Sagittal Vertical Axis (SVA), a postural parameter calculated as the distance between the posterior corner of the sacrum and the C7-plumbline on full-body sagittal radiographs [1], has been shown to be highly altered in ASD. Even though this parameter is positional and could vary during gait, no studies have investigated its variation during walking even in asymptomatic subjects.
