RESEARCH ARTICLEOpen AccessDo small changes in rotation affectmeasurements of lower extremity limbalignment?Amir A. Jamali1*, John P. Meehan2, Nathan M. Moroski3, Matthew J. Anderson4, Ramit Lamba5and Carol Parise6 AbstractBackground:The alignment of the lower extremity has important implications in the development of knee effect of incremental rotations of the limb on common parameters of alignment has not been studied. Thepurpose of the study was to (1) determine the standardized neutral position measurements of alignment and (2)determine the effect of rotation on commonly used measurements of :Eighty-seven full length CT angiography studies (49 males and 38 females, average age 66 years old) wereincluded. Three-dimensional models were created using a rendering software program and placed on a virtual image of the extremity was obtained. Thirty scans were randomly selected, and those models were rotated in 3 intervals around the longitudinal axis and additional images were :In the neutral position, the mechanical lateral distal femoral articular angle (mLDFA) was , medialproximal tibial angle (MPTA) was , and mechanical tibiofemoral angle (mTFA) was.
