Relative lumbar lordosis and lordosis distribution index: individualized pelvic incidence–based proportional parameters that quantify lumbar lordosis more precisely than the concept of pelvic incidence minus lumbar lordosis [PDF]
Neurosurgical Focus, 2017 OBJECTIVE The subtraction of lumbar lordosis (LL) from the pelvic incidence (PI) offers an estimate of the LL required for a given PI value. Relative LL (RLL) and the lordosis distribution index (LDI) are PI-based individualized measures. RLL quantifies the magnitude of lordosis relative to the ideal lordosis as

Optimized Surgical Strategy for Adult Spinal Deformity: Quantitative Lordosis Correction versus Lordosis Morphology [PDF]
Journal of Clinical Medicine, 2021 Background: In surgical correction of adult spinal deformity (ASD), pelvic incidence (PI)-lumbar lordosis (LL) plays a key role to restore normal sagittal alignment. Recently, it has been found that postoperative lordosis morphology act as an important factor in preventing mechanical complications.
