We assessed the direction and grade of pelvic deviation using palpation and spinal malleolar distance (SMD) measurement in patients with pelvic deviation at the sacroiliac joint affecting daily living and sporting activities. In this article, we introduce the pelvic deviation-testing method with palpation that we developed, with regard to the pelvic deviation condition in which the unilateral coxal bone at the sacroiliac joint in the pelvic region shows anteroposterior inclination. We report the pattern of pelvic deviation classified based on clinical data, and introduce a simple, objective examination procedure using the SMD. In addition, we present patients with pelvic deviation as an etiological factor influencing basic/sporting activities, and review the evaluation and treatment of pelvic deviation in physical therapy.
