Contrary to a commonly held notion, scoliosis, and especially lumbar and thoracolumbar scoliosis, can develop during adulthood. Its evolution is slow and insidious and involves both the anatomic aspect of the curve and the functional aspect (development or worsening of painful spinal or radicular symptoms and/or disequilibrium). This finding underlines

Adult spinal deformity is defined by scoliosis or abnormal coronal or sagittal balance. Sagittal imbalance can be due to an increase in thoracic kyphosis and/or loss of lumbar lordosis. Abnormal sagittal balance causes increased energy expenditure required for walking and standing upright. In patients with adult spinal deformity, correction of sagittal
