group were above 17 years of age, the youngest was 17 years of age and the oldest was 65 years old.
2) In the lateral view of the roentgenograms, the results were summarized as follows: Ferguson angle M 38.24°
F 33.18°
Mitchell angle M 142.19°
F 145.73°
L-5 horizontal angle M 19.51°
F 19.03°
Promontorium angle M 131.75°
F 133.02°
3) Ferguson´s angle and 5th lumbar horizontal angle showed to be closely related with low back paine and the others shwed no any relation ships in it´s mean nalues.
4) Mitchell´s angle in the female patients associated with low back pain were revealed obvoiusly increased.
