Utility of anterior wall of greater trochanter in predicting femoral anteversion angle: a three-dimensional computed tomography-based simulation study

Utility of anterior wall of greater trochanter in predicting femoral anteversion angle: a three-dimensional computed tomography-based simulation study

Abstract Background The femoral anteversion angle is an important factor in performing surgery in the proximal part of the femur. Predicting the femoral anteversion angle based on the morphology of the proximal femur is clinically useful. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether an anato...
