: Knee deformities can be reliably assessed by using morphometric parameters of upper end of tibia. Total knee arthroplasties are done to treat many types of arthritis and injuries involving knee joint. So, there is a need to have data of various morphometric parameters of upper end of tibia in order to have better surgical outcomes. The present study was attempted to provide values of different parameters in the population of Bihar.: The present study was a cross-sectional and prospective study conducted on 50 tibia of unknown gender and age in the Department of Anatomy, Indira Gandhi Institute of Medical Sciences, Patna. Fully ossified, dried, macerated and thoroughly cleaned tibia were taken to measure different parameters of upper end with the help of digital vernier calliper. The data thus obtained were tabulated and analysed statistically using Microsoft excel software.: It was found that the diameters of medial condyle were more than the lateral condyle. The antero-posterior diameter was more than the transverse diameter in case of both the condyles. But the difference between the right and the left side was not statistically significant.: The present study will help in providing a baseline data for designing of the prosthesis used in total knee replacement surgeries. It will also be helpful to anthropologists and forensic experts.

“…Proximal tibial morphometry is important for surgeons to perform successful total knee arthroplasty. A better understanding of the proximal tibial anatomy is essential to design appropriate tibial implants [11], [12], [13], [14]. In order to use the implant in a healthy way for many years, anthropometric data must be accurate and reliable [15], [16], [17].…”

The tibia is a thick and strong bone located medial to the leg. It is the longest bone in the bodyafter the os femoris, supporting the body weight and transferring this weight to the talus via the ankle jointvia the os femoris. It has two ends and a body. It articulates with the femur, fibula and talus. Total kneearthroplasty is used as an important treatment option in cases where conservative treatment options are noteffective or in advanced degenerative disorders. The need for total knee arthroplasty surgery is increasingwith advancing age. The general aim of total knee arthroplasty is to correct deformities, restore the functionof the knee joint and relieve long-term pain. Thus, it helps both psychological and physical recovery byimproving the patient's quality of life. Success of surgical intervention depends on the surgeon's experienceand knowledge of the anatomy of the proximal tibia. Appropriate tibial implants will ensure the longevityof the knee prosthesis and rapid movement of the patient. Anthropometric data must be accurate and reliablein order to use the implant in a healthy way for many years. Differences between age, gender and race areclinically important in determining the dimensions of inserted prosthetic components. Defining themorphologic and morphometric properties of the proximal tibia will be useful in improving prosthesis fit,manufacturing and application. Morphometric studies on the proximal tibia in the Turkish population arescarce and these studies will significantly contribute to the design of the tibial component of the total kneeprosthesis.

Background: Arthritis and injuries of the knee are frequently managed by knee arthroplasty. Knee prosthesis thus used needs population specific appropriate sizing. The aim of the study is to analyse tibial plateau morphometrically.Methods: The study included 46 human tibia bones (28 left and 18 right). The anteroposterior length and transverse width of superior articular surface of both tibial condyles along with the anteroposterior length and transverse measurements of the intercondylar area were noted with digital Vernier caliper. The data was tabulated and analysed.Results: For the superior articular surface of medial condyle, anteroposterior length was found to be 4.12±0.42cm on left side and 4.17±0.50cm on right side; maximum width was found to be 2.81±0.59cm on left side and 2.78±0.34cm on right side. For the superior surface of lateral condyle, the anteroposterior length was found to be 3.92±0.30cm on left side and 3.66±0.31cm on right side whereas maximum width was found to be 3.12±0.68cm on left side and 2.87±0.55cm on right side. Anteroposterior length of intercondylar area was measured to be 4.31±0.40cm on left side and 4.18±0.44cm on right side. The transverse measurement was recorded to be 3.12±0.68cm (left side), 2.87±0.55cm (right side) anteriorly; 1.25±0.23cm (left side), 1.31±0.20cm (right side) in the middle and 1.28±0.39cm (left side), 1.85±0.42cm (right side) posteriorly.Conclusions: The results will be helpful in orthopaedic surgical procedures involving knee.
