Anteversion of the femur and idiopathic osteoarthrosis of the hip

JH Wedge, I Munkacsi and D Loback
Department of Anatomy, University of Saskatchewan, Saskatoon, Canada.

We studied the radiographs of 220 consecutive cadavera that were used for dissection by medical students over an eleven-year period. Anteversion of the femur was measured by a reproducible direct method after dissection of forty-eight idiopathic osteoarthrotic hips and twenty control hips. We were unable to find a significant difference between the degree of anteversion of the neck of the femur in the two groups.
