KYPHOSIS "primary curves"

curves of the thoracic and sacral regions

LORDOSIS "secondary curves"

curves of the cervical and lumbar region

Commonly found abnormal curves in the sagittal plane

hyperkyphosis and hyperlordosis

exaggerated posterior thoracic curvature

exaggerated anterior lumbar curvature
