There is paucity of data concerning the morphological dimensions of the distal part of the femur and the proximal part of the tibia in Indian population. The objective of this study was to analyse the exact anatomic data collected from patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty. Morphologic data from the distal part of the femur and proximal part of the tibia, from 50 knees, were obtained during total knee Arthroplasty, with a microcalliper. The study included 30 women and 20 men, who had a mean age of 65 years. A characterisation of the aspect ratio (the medial-lateral to anterior-posterior dimensions) was made for the proximal aspect of the tibia and distal part of the femur.Background
