It is important to investigate anatomical differences of the femur and tibia three‐
dimensionally between varus and valgus knees to enhance surgical approaches and better …

Standing full-length radiographs were measured to compare coronal femoral axes between
250 limbs in patients with varus osteoarthritis with 50 healthy controls. Mean distal femoral …

OBJECTIVE: We evaluated if increased risk of combined hip and lateral knee osteoarthritis
(OA) could be attributed to anatomical reasons in the hip region resulting in increased …

Objective Increased femoral anteversion (FA) has been correlated with less varus
deformities in osteoarthritic (OA) knees, but the relationship between FA and the degree of …

Purpose In contemporary total knee arthroplasty (TKA), most often, the goal is to align the
femoral component to the epicondylar axis (EA). The posterior condylar axis (PCA) is easier …

Purpose To characterize femoral deformities and determine sex differences in varus knee
osteoarthritis (OA), femoral morphology and limb alignment were evaluated by using three …

Purpose: Anatomically femoral bone has bowing. Conventionally, femoral bowing was
evaluated using two dimensional (2D) radiography. We have reported a novel method to …

Objective This study aimed to investigate alignment based on age in normal knees and
alignment based on deformity in osteoarthritis (OA) knees using detailed radiographic …

The two transepicondylar axes (the clinical and surgical epicondylar axes), the posterior
condylar axis, and the anteroposterior axis were constructed using computed tomography …

Introduction Previous studies have reported the relationship between coronal alignment of
the lower limbs and the rotational profile of the femur and tibia. However, the relationship …
