Hilus pulmonis as the center of gravity for AS thoracolumbar kyphosis

European Spine Journal, 2013
The sagittal vertical axis (SVA) is a meaningful measurement and widely used for evaluating sagittal balance, and is considered a design standard for surgery, including most ankylosing spondylitis (AS) kyphotic deformity planning. However, recent research indicates that the C7 plumb line is actually not the center of gravity (CG) line.

Thoracolumbar Kyphosis and Lumbosacral Hyperlordosis in Achondroplastic Children

1988
The thoracolumbar (TL) kyphosis is present at birth, or is noticed within the first 6 months in about 95% of newborns. The curve becomes more pronounced and gains its maximal expression when the child becomes a sitter, between 6 and 18 months of age (Fig. la,b).
