European Spine Journal, 04/27/09
Choufani E et al. - The study shows that the sacrum of human fetuses is oriented posteriorly mathematically in 100% of cases, and in 60% of cases based on the morphologic appearance of the lumbosacral junction. So beside the effect of progressive acquisition of erect posture and bipedalism in determining the formation of lumbosacral angle, the authors believe that genetics play an important role in the formation of the lumbosacral angle.
