Dr Nowsheeba Khurshid, Dr Rohul Afza
Abstract :
Introduction: Upper end of tibia is an important component of knee joint. The aim of present study is to analyse different morphometric parameters of condylar and intercondylar surface of tibia, so as to formulate a baseline data for future studies with relevance to Indian population and to compare the current data with previous literature. Morphometric study of upper end of tibia can be used to guide treatment and monitor outcome of total knee replacement surgeries. Material and Method: 30 dried human adult tibia were obtained from Dept. of anatomy SKIMS Medical College bemina Srinagar. Morphometric measurements of medial condyle, lateral condyle and intercondylar area of tibiae were measured with Vernier caliper. Result: Anteroposterior measurements were found to be greater than transverse measurements for both medial and lateral condyles. Furthermore, both anteroposterior and transverse measurements were greater in medial condyle than in lateral condyle.Racial differences were observed. Conclusion: The present study is to provide a base line data pertaining to morphometric details of upper end of tibia in Indian population, which aims to provide help for anatomists, anthropologists, and orthopedics, in knee arthroplasty procedures, and meniscal transplantation
