[ 1 ] - Measurement of Posterior Tibial Slope Using Magnetic Resonance Imaging
Background: Posterior tibial slope (PTS) is an important factor in the knee joint biomechanics and one of the bone features, which leads to knee joint stability. Posterior tibial slope affects flexion gap, knee joint stability and posterior femoral rollback that are related to wide range of knee motion. During high tibial osteotomy and total knee arthroplasty (TKA) surgery, proper retaining the...

Background: Anatomy is one of the most important and basic medical science courses in the basic sciences. The aim of this study was to evaluate the importance of anatomy in clinical practice from the viewpoint of intern and extern medical students in Mashhad University of Medical Sciences. Methods: A descriptive study was performed in the...
[ 3 ] - Correlation of Anthropometric Measurements of Proximal Tibia in Iranian Knees with Size of Current Tibial Implants
of the Caucasian population. The purpose of this study was to investigate the morphometry of the proximal tibia in thestandard resected surface of total knee arthroplasty (TKA).Methods: In this descriptive study, the anthropometric data of the proximal tibia were measured in 132 knees (80 malesand 52 females) using magnetic resonance imaging in 2015. The collected data include...
[ 4 ] - Anthropometric Measurements of Distal Femur to Design the Femoral Component of Total Knee Arthroplasty for the Iranian Population
Background: Acquiring knowledge about anatomic and geometric quantities of bones is among the most vitalparameters in orthopedic surgery that has a significant effect on the treatment of various disorders and subsequentoutcomes. The aim of this study was to obtain anthropometric information for distal femur in order to compare withsimilar dimensions of prosthesis used in total...
