TABARES NEYRA, Horacio Inocencio; FLEITES MARRERO, Ernesto Emilio; TABARES SAEZ, Horacio e MORALES SEIFE, Roberto. Influence of Sagittal Balance on Degenerative Changes in the Spine (I). Rev Cubana Ortop Traumatol [online]. 2020, vol.34, n.2 Epub 01-Fev-2021. ISSN 1561-3100.
Studies have determined the importance of sagittal balance in the development of degenerative entities of the spine, mainly in the lumbar region; as well as in the results of the surgical interventions of these affections. The purpose of this paper is to review and discuss current concepts on vertebral and lumbar sagittal stability, as well as its influence on the degenerative spinal process, basically on stenosis, spondylolisthesis and degenerative scoliosis. There are pelvic parameters and spinal parameters that have to be taken into account for the preoperative and postoperative determination of sagittal balance. Sagittal balance is classified into normal balance, compensated balance and imbalance. This is very important to reach the correct diagnosis and apply the necessary surgical treatment.
