Abstract

Objectives: In this study, we evaluated the effects of the distance of the legs from the midline on alignment and angles of the lower extremities in orthoroentgenograms. Patients and methods: Between March 2012 and April 2013, 95 limbs of 56 patients with varus deformity who underwent orthoroentgenogram to identify the amount of joint laxity in two positions were included in this study. The initial X-ray was performed with the feet in contact, while the other was performed as the legs were abducted to be in line with the shoulders. For each orthoroentgenogram, the mean mechanical axis angle, anatomical axis, and joint line orientation angles were measured retrospectively. These measurements were repeated for 43 limbs with varus deformity >10°. Results: In the orthoroentgenograms with the feet in contact, the mean mechanical axis angle was 9.58°±5.7°, (0.20°; 26.0°), the mean anatomical axis angle 3.65°±6.14°, (-9.0°; 21.0°), and the mean joint line orientation angle -3.41°±2.52°, (-12.0°; 1.60°). In the orthoroentgenograms with the legs abducted, the mean mechanical axis angle was 7.73°±5.58°, (-3.0°; 23.0°), the mean anatomical axis angle 2.62°±5.87°, (-11.0°; 18.30°), and mean joint line orientation angle was -2.44°±2.41°, (-13.0°; 3.0°). The differences in the angles between the two positions were statistically significant (p

Özet

Amaç: Bu çalışmada ortoröntgenogramlarda bacakların orta hatta olan uzaklığının alt ekstremite dizilimi ve açıları üzeri- ne olan etkileri incelendi. Hastalar ve yöntemler: Mart 2012 - Nisan 2013 tarihleri arasında, eklemdeki laksite miktarının anlaşılabilmesi ama- cıyla farklı iki pozisyonda ortoröntgenogram çekilmiş olan 56 hastanın varus deformitesi olan 95 ekstremitesi çalışmaya dahil edildi. İlk grafi, ayak bilekleri birbirine değecek şekilde çekilirken, ikinci grafinin, ayaklar hastanın omuz genişliği mesafesi kadar açık olacak şekilde çekildi. Her bir ortorönt- genogramda, ortalama mekanik aks açıları, anatomik akslar ve eklem hattı oryantasyon açıları ölçüldü. Varus deformitesi >10° olan 43 ekstremite için ölçümler ayrıca tekrarlandı. Bulgular: Ayakların bitişik olduğu pozisyonda çekilen orto- röntgenogramlarda, ortalama mekanik aks değeri 9.58°±5.7°, (0.20°; 26.0°), ortalama anatomik aks 3.65°±6.14°, (-9.0°; 21.0°) ve ortalama eklem hattı oryantasyon açısı -3.41°±2.52°, (-12.0°; 1.60°) olarak hesaplandı. Ayakların omuz mesafesinde açık olduğu pozisyonda çekilen ortoröntgenogramlarda ise; orta- lama mekanik aks değeri 7.73°±5.58°, (-3.0°; 23.0°), ortalama anatomik aks 2.62°±5.87°, (-11.0°; 18.30°) ve ortalama eklem hattı oryantasyon açısı -2.44°±2.41°, (-13.0°; 3.0°) olarak hesaplandı. İki pozisyon arasındaki açısal farklar istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bulundu (p
