"Outliers" in osteoarthritic knees concerning distal femoral valgus angle and femoral rotation angle reply
Özet
Weread with interest the article in press at your journal entitled “Variability
in distal femoral anatomy in patients undergoing total knee
arthroplasty: measurements on 13,546 computed tomography scans”
written byMeric et al [1].We congratulate them for their inspiring work.
The authors analyzed 13,546 computed tomographic (CT) scans of arthritic
patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and measured
distal femoral valgus angle (DFVA) between the anatomic and mechanical
axis, and femoral rotation angle (FRA) relative to posterior condylar line.
