Table 4.
The lateral tilt, medial tilt and sulcus angles of the femoral trochlea calculated based on 90° cross-sections of three-dimensional models of native and prosthetic knees (n = 42)
| 90° cross-section | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| Lateral tilt angle (°) | Medial tilt angle (°) | Sulcus angle (°) | |
| MP | 15.2 | 11.7 | 153.1 |
| Native knee | 13.5 (2.8) | 18.4 (3.2) | 148.0 (4.8) |
All parameters are reported as mean or mean (standard deviation)
Significant differences (p < 0.05) between the native and prosthetic knees were noted for all angles evaluated
