Analysis of Sacrococcygeal Morphology in Koreans Using Computed Tomography.

CONCLUSIONS: The sacrum tended to be more curved and the coccyx straighter with age. The coccyx was straighter in females than males. Knowledge of the sacrococcygeal anatomy of Koreans will promote better understanding of anatomical differences among ethnicities and future studies on coccydynia. PMID: 27904724 [PubMed - in process]
