[Asymmetrical lower limbs. Lumbosacral changes and scoliosis].
The spine and pelvis of both young and adult subjects with inequality in length of lower extremities were examined in standing position. At the lumbosacral level, alterations affecting the last intervertebral disc spaces, the basal vertebra and the sacrum were observed, caused by asymmetric weight distribution, which can modify the spine axis.
