Posturalchangesdesignedtocorrecttheanteriorsagittal imbal-ance consist of posterior pelvic tilt with hip extension and, subsequently, knee flexion. Thus, compensation by the global extension reserve, which is the sumof the extrinsicextension reserveallowedbythelumbo-sacraljunctionandoftheintrinsic extensionreserveallowedbythehips[7,8],restoresthesagittal balanceuptoapoint[9].Whentheglobalextensionreserveisno longersufficient,sagittalimbalanceoccurs.

Thedevelopmentofnewimagingtoolssuchasthelow-dose EOS®radiographicsystem(EOSImaging,Paris,France)hasallowed notonlya globalpostural analysis,butalsodynamic studiesof thefemur-pelvis-spinejunction[15–19].Whenmovingfromthe standingtotheseated position,thepelvis tiltsposteriorly [20]
andchangesoccurintheacetabularparameters[21,22],including increasedacetabularcupanteversion[23,24].
To correct the sagittal imbalance that characterises post-operative flat-back syndrome, one of the treatment options is surgery via the posterior approach with transpedicular closed-wedgeresectionosteotomy(pediclesubtractionosteotomy,PSO). Byinducinganteriorpelvictilt,PSOcausessignificantchangesin thepelvic parameters [25,26]. Themagnitude of thechange in pelvicorientationdepends onthelevelof thePSO [27].Toour knowledge,nostudieshavedirectlyinvestigatedtheinfluenceof lumbarPSOonacetabularparameters.

2. Materialandmethods
Aretrospectivedescriptivestudyofradiographicmeasurements was performed. Inclusion criteria were age>18years, lumbar transpedicular closed-wedge osteotomy to treat post-operative flat-back syndrome, and standing whole-body low-dose EOS® imagingbeforeandafterPSO.Exclusioncriteriawerethepresence, inadditiontoflat-backsyndrome,oflumbarorthoracicscoliosis
andinsufficientvisibilityoftheanatomicstructurescompromising theabilitytodeterminepelvicandacetabularparametersonthe EOS®images.
Twoobserversmeasuredpelvicandacetabularparameterson bothsidesinallpatients. Thesemeasurementswereperformed twice,atanintervalof2weeks,usingsterEOS®3Dsoftware(Fig.1a and b),which converts 2D imagesinto a 3D model. Thestudy parametersaredescribedbelow.
Pelvicparameters:
•pelvic incidence (IPI): angle formed by a perpendicular line throughthemiddleofthesacralendplateandtheline connect-ingthemiddleofthesacralendplatetothecentresofthefemoral heads;
•sacralslope(SS):angleformedbythehorizontalandaline tan-genttothesacralendplate;
•pelvictilt(PT):angleformedbytheverticalandtheline connect-ingthecentresofthefemoralheadstothemiddleofthesacral endplate;
•lumbarlordosis(LL):angleformedbythelinestangenttothe upperL1endplateandsacralendplate;
•anteriorpelvic plane(APP):planecontainingthetwo antero-superioriliacspinesandthepubis;
•APPinclination:angleformedbytheverticalandtheAPP. Acetabularparameters(Fig.2aandb):
•acetabularinclination(AI):angleformedbytheprojectionofthe horizontalplanecorrectedbytheaxisconnectingthecentresof theacetabulaandtheprojectionoftheacetabularopeningonthe coronalplane;

Theacetabularparameters(AIandAA)andAPPweremeasured relativetotheverticalplane,definedastheplanecontainingthe centresoftheacetabula(coronalplane).
Statistical analysis: ananalysis using thehistogram method establishedthatallstudyvariableswerenormallydistributed.The mean pre-operative and post-operative values of each variable werecomparedusingthepairedt-test.ValuesofP<0.05were con-sideredsignificant.Alinearregressionmodelwasbuiltusingthe least-squaresmethod.
Inter-observerandintra-observerreproducibilitywasassessed by computing the intra-class coefficients (ICCs) [28,29]. Cor-relations are considered very strong when the ICC is>0.95
[30].
3. Results
Thissingle-centrestudywasperformedfromMarch2010toJuly 2013.Ofthe22patientsincludedinitially,3wereexcluded, includ-ing2becauseofpoorvisibilityoftheacetabulum,mostnotablyits anteriorwall;and1becausetherightiliacwingwasoutsidethe acquisitionfield.Thisleft19patientsforthestudy,13femalesand 6 males,withameanageof61years(range,22–77years).Thus, 38 acetabulawerestudiedand76 measurementswereobtained byeachofthetwoobservers.MeantimefromPSO tothe post-operativemeasurementswas19months(range,1–35).

4. Discussion
Thisstudydemonstratesthatspinalsurgicalproceduresaimed atinducinglargecorrectionsinsagittalalignmentmodifythe orien-tationoftheacetabula.Thus,PSOperformedtotreatpost-operative flat-back syndrome induces statistically significant acetabular retroversionandhorizontalisation.
Weselectedpatientswithpost-operativeflat-backsyndrome andweexcludedpatientswithscoliosisinordertofocusourstudy ondeformitiesinthesagittalplane.Althoughthesestrictinclusion criteriaresultedinlimitedstatisticalpower,themajoreffectofPSO incorrectingsagittalmalalignmentallowedustodetectsignificant changesinoursmallsample.Inallpatients,theinstrumentation extendeddowntothepelvisandthereforeimmobilisedthe sacro-iliacjoints.Thisfacteliminatedallriskofmeasurementbiasrelated tosacro-iliacjointmotion.
Despitethelimitedstatisticalpowerofthestudy,the measure-mentsmadeonEOS®imagesusingsterEOS®3Dsoftwareshowed verygoodreproducibilityandrepeatability.Althoughthechanges inacetabularorientationseemedtocorrelatewiththechangesin LL,thefairlylowcorrelationcoefficients(RAA=0.34andRI=0.64) indicatethatourresultsarenotsufficientlyrobusttoallow defini-tiveconclusions. A study offering greaterstatistical power and including the identification of potential confounders would be needed.
Inourstudy,theacetabularparametersweremeasured rela-tivetotheverticalplaneandnottotheAPP.Thetermsfunctional inclinationandanteversionarethereforeappropriate,sincethese measurementsvarywiththepositionofthepelvis[20].
