The Adaptive Patterns of Pelvic Alignment in Individuals with Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis.

CONCLUSION: Both AIS groups showed different pelvic tilt and rotation. ATR showed the correlation with pelvic tilt and obliquity in double-curve group only. A larger curve influenced the pelvic-spinal rotation relationship more than the near-pelvic-curve. Thus, awareness ofpelvic alignment in AIS assessment and treatment is recommended.
