Relationship between lower limb torsion and coronal morphologies of the femur and tibia in patients with medial knee osteoarthritis

Abstract Background To investigate the relationship between femoral or tibial torsion and hip-knee-ankle angle (HKA), mechanical lateral distal femoral angle (mLDFA), or mechanical medial proximal tibial angle (mMPTA) in patients with medial knee osteoarthritis (OA). Methods A total of 75 knees were...
