The sagittal balance of the spine — vertical alignment of the trunk above the pelvis — has recently been considered as an integrative indicator of such changes. Quantitatively, it is described by the sagittal vertical axis — the horizontal distance between the centers of the seventh cervical vertebra body (C7) and the posterio-superior border of the sacrum on lateral radiographs of the spine in full growth. Deviations of this parameter with age are a widespread cause of pain, limitation of mobility, and following decrease in the quality of life, progressively increasing among people after 60 years. To understand the mechanisms of maintaining the sagittal balance within physiological range and the causes of its disorders, it is important to consider it as the functional system. In the functional system, the sagittal balance is assigned the central system-forming role of the final adaptive result. In the architecture of such a functional system other functional blocks must be differentiated
