Abstract：Objective To investigate the relationship between the iliac crest height and the lumbar degenerative spon-dylolisthesis.Methods 40 patients of lumbar degenerative spondylolisthesis were as experimental group, 40 healthy vol-unteers as control group.All of them underwent lumbar X-ray examinations.To compare means of iliac crest height, verte-bral body height between two groups.Results The means of iliac crest height and its relative height between groups were not statistically significant (both P>0.05).The means of L4 vertebral height in experimental group was lower than that in control group (P<0.05).Conclusion Iliac crest height has no obvious correlation with the occurrence of lumbar degen-erative spondylolisthesis.
