Rotational profile of the lower extremity and foot progression angle: computerized tomographic examination of 50 male adults.
Acetabular, femoral and tibial torsion of 50 normal adult male subjects were measured by computerized tomography and the relationship between these angles and foot-progression angle was examined. The mean acetabular anteversion was 15.6 degrees on the right and 15.8 degrees on the left, (range 3 degrees-30 degrees). The mean femoral torsion was 6.5 degrees on the right and 5.8 degrees on the left (range 14 degrees-28 degrees). The mean tibiofibular torsion was 30.9 degrees on the right and 29.1 degrees on the left (range 16 degrees-50 degrees). Although the normal range of torsional measurements of the lower extremity was very broad, subjects usually had out-toeing, with a mean foot-progression angle of 13.7 degrees on the right and 13.0 degrees on the left (range 6 degrees-21 degrees). No correlation was detected on the rotation between different levels of the lower limb. No difference was detected in the lower extremity rotational profile between right and left sides.
