Femoral anteversion in healthy children J Anat

Location: http://www.pubmedcentral.nih.gov/articlerender.fcgi?artid=1256956

Abstract Femoral anteversion (torsion) was measured in 219 healthy children aged 1-15 years (boys 128, girls 91). The hips and knees were examined using a standard static-image B-mode compound scanner. The torsion in each femur was calculated. The findings show: (1) A significant negative correlation between femoral anteversion and age...
