Background: Pelvic, spinal and hips asymmetries constitute common phenomena. Pelvic asymmetry is usually perceived from two different points of view: as a causative factor in certain motor system dysfunctions or as a symptom of existing dysfunctions. Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the difference in activation asymmetry of lateral abdominal muscles (LAM) and the difference in body weight distribution on lower extremities during prolonged standing between subjects with and without pelvic asymmetry, and check if there is a correlation between the magnitude of pelvic asymmetry and activation asymmetry of lateral abdominal muscles as well as body weight distribution on lower extremities. Methods: A total of 66 subjects (34 women) participated in the study. LAM activation was measured using ultrasound technology. Body weight distribution asymmetry on lower extremities was measured during prolonged barefoot standing on the two scales equipped with digital readings. The activation asymmetry index and the weight distribution asymmetry index between the left and right sides of the body were calculated. Results: The recorded weight distribution asymmetry indexes were slightly higher in subjects with pelvic asymmetry; however, no significant inter-group differences were found. These subjects did not show any significant difference from subjects without asymmetry for activation asymmetry index recorded in all individual LAMs (obliquus externus abdominis p = .68, obliquus internus abdominis p = .34, transversus abdominis p = .55). Conclusions: No differences were found between subjects with and without pelvic asymmetry in activation asymmetry of lateral abdominal muscles and body weight distribution on lower extremities. Thus, there was no evidence gathered to prove that pelvic asymmetry constitutes an advantageous or disadvantageous phenomenon. It seems that it may play only a minor role, if any, in the energy expenditure optimisation process during prolonged standing. It is unlikely that pelvic asymmetry may lead to or stem from activation asymmetry of lateral abdominal muscles.

The goal of the prospective study is to assess pelvic rotation with the use of a new radiographic method based on determination of pre-defined points on an anterior-posterior (AP) X-ray projection of the pelvis. The authors have already described and published an original radiographic method of assessing axial pelvic rotation based on the position of the sacrum, the shadows of the pelvis inlet and the symphysis position. Not all X-ray images capture the entire pelvis, which makes it impossible to read the symphysis position and use the original method. However, most X-ray images portray complete iliac wings, for which reason this study attempts to find geometric relations of the wings projections in the case of axial pelvic rotation. The new radiographic method is based on reading the width of the shadows or iliac wings and allows for determination of geometric value of the axial pelvic rotation based on a simple principle by means of direct measurement of the relevant angle by a protractor. No special tools are needed, the axial pelvic rotation can be measured both on a conventional image and on a digital image. The presented method can be easily implemented into computer programs where only two relevant abscissae are constructed and the angle is then calculated automatically based on the scheme. This simple method can be used for X-ray assessment of pelvic rotation for many other reasons in many different fields (e.g. anthropology, biomechanics, X-ray analysis, paediatric orthopaedics, orthopaedic prosthetics, spondylology, surgery for spondylosis, etc.).

Výskyt ileofemorální trombózy v dětském věku je vzácný. Autoři ve svém sdělení prezentují případ, kdy byla tato diagnóza spojena s přítomností vývojové anomálie systému pánevních žil - May-Thurnerova syndromu - charakterizovaného zúžením levostranné společné iliacké žíly v místě křížení s pravostrannou iliackou tepnou. Pacient byl léčen lokální trombolýzou v dávce 0,8mg/h/24 h rt-PA (Actilyse) a implantací samoexpandibilního stentu Wallstent 14 x 100 mm do společné iliacké žíly vlevo. U pacienta byl následně prokázán familiární trombofilní stav s přítomností homozygotní mutace faktoru VLeiden a byl indikován k doživotní antiko agulační léčbě. Neinvazivní dopplerovské vyšetření prokázalo optimální průchodnost hlubokého žilního systému levé dolní končetiny bez reziduální trombózy.
The occurence of deep ileofemoral thrombosis in children is rare. The authors present a case where aberration of the pelvic vein known as - May-Thurner syndrome become complicated with the deep ileofemoral thrombosis. May-Thurner syndrome is caused by left common iliac vein compression by the overlying right common iliac artery. The patient was treated with local administration of plasminogen activator in the dose of 0,8 mg/h/24 h and selfexpanding stent was placed into the left common iliac vein. Familial thrombophilia was discovered with the presence of factor V gene mutation - Leiden. Longlife anti-coagulation therapy was recommended. Ultrasound follow-up confirmed patency of the pelvic veins without residual thrombosis.
