BACKGROUND Femoral Neck Anteversion (FNA) is an important parameter for diagnosis of gait abnormality in children, risk of various congenital and acquired orthopaedic disorders as well as corrective osteotomy and hip arthroplasty. Femoral anteversion is the lateral rotation of the neck of the femur to the long axis of its shaft. Variability in FNA has been reported and is due to torsional forces applied on femur during development. The aim of this study was to estimate the angle of anteversion of femur in both genders on both sides. The present study was an attempt to provide baseline data of FNA in South Indian population, in particular, Andhra Pradesh. MATERIALS AND METHODS The study was conducted mechanically on 70 dried adult unpaired human femora, i.e. 48 male and 22 female bones. The Kingsley Olmsted 1 method was used for the study and the data was analysed. Statistical analysis-Statistical analysis was done using student unpaired 't' test. The data was analysed using GraphPad Prism 5.0 (Free Trial Version). RESULTS Out of the 70 femora undertaken, mean value of FNA obtained in male is 15.95, 14.1 on right and 17.8 on left sides and in female it is 19.2, 21.8 on right and 16.6 on left side. Statistical analysis revealed significant (p < 0.05) greater average anteversion in female bones and right-left variations being greater on the left side.

Background: Proximal femoral geometry(PFG) plays a role in the biomechanics of the hip. During total hip replacement detailed efforts are made to restore this biomechanics in other to ensure patients satisfaction and implant survival. There are variations in these parameters. Ethnicity is one of the most influential factors accounting for these variations. Aim: To determine the values of the parameters of the proximal femoral geometry among the ethnic Igbos of the South Eastern Nigeria, determine any correlation between these parameters, and compare these values with known populations as well as discuss the clinical application in total hip replacement and other hip surgeries. Materials and Method: Seven hundred and sixteen (716) femoral bones taken from the osteology unit of department of anatomy of University of Nigeria Enugu Campus (UNEC) were screened and proximal femoral parameters measured using Vernier calipers. Results: There were 356 right and 360 left femoral bones with the following values: Femoral Neck Anteversion Angle (FNAVA): M=19.04°, SD=2.075°, Proximal Femoral Length(PFL): M=73.24mm, SD=7.622, Femoral Head Vertical Diameter(FHVD):M= 44.64mm, SD=3.134, Femoral Head Transverse Diameter(FHTD),M=44.55mm, SD=3.379mm, Femoral Head Diameter(FHD),M=44.60mm, SD=3.119mm, Femoral Neck Anterior Length(FNAL), M=31.86mm, SD=5.383mm, Femoral Posterior Neck Length(FPNL):M=22.23mm, SD=3.520mm, Femoral Neck Diameter (FND), M=32.71mm, SD= 3.315mm, Proximal Femoral Width Head to Side (PFWHS), M=89mm.80,SD= 10.331mm, Proximal Femoral Width Side to Side (PFWSS), M=31.47mm, SD=2.812mm, Femoral Neck Shaft Angle(FNSA), M=132.15°, 7.305°. Conclusion: The parameters of the proximal femoral geometry of the ethnic Igbos of the South East of Nigeria, differed from other populations and exhibited laterality.

PURPOSE OF THE STUDYThis study aims to ascertain whether a high anteversion of the femoral neck can influence the measurement of the caputcollum-diaphyseal (CCD) angle on a plain anteroposterior (AP) radiograph of the proximal femur. MATERIAL AND METHODSWe developed a new method of measuring the CCD angle and femoral neck version of the femur. This was done with the use of a computer program that utilised the measurement of the entire visualised area of femoral neck and shaft to calculate their long axis. Using this method, we measured the CCD angle and femoral neck version (FNV) of 100 photographed cadaveric femurs in two projections: The condylar line (CL) projection and the femoral neck (FN) projection. The same method was applied to 50 radiographs of the same femurs. The femurs were divided into three groups depending on the femoral neck version: Retro (FNV of <0°), Normal (FNV of 0-15°) and Ante (FNV of >15°) RESULTSWe found a statistically significant difference in the CCD angle measured in the FN and CL projections in the Normal and Ante groups but not in the Retro group. There is a significant correlation between the increase in FNV and the difference between the measured CCD values in the FL and CL projections. The femoral neck version of our cadaveric femurs varied from -14. 4° to 31. 5° which is a range of more than 35°. CONCLUSIONSFrom the results, it is clear that with an increase in femoral neck anteversion, there is a statistically significant difference in the CCD angle measured between the two projections. This difference can be up to almost 10°. Surgeons should be aware of the limitation of the AP projection when planning for surgery on the hip.
