Distal femoral torsion is correlated with higher-grade trochlear dysplasia and shorter anterior condyles in patients with patellar dislocation and increased femoral torsion
PurposeTo describe the characteristics of femoral torsion in patients with different segmental torsion types and to evaluate the correlations between...

Increased knee torsional misalignment associated with femoral torsion is related to non-contact anterior cruciate ligament injury: a case–control study
BackgroundAltered axial biomechanics of the knee are recognized as a risk factor for non-contact anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury. However,...
-
Registration based assessment of femoral torsion for rotational osteotomies based on the contralateral anatomy
BackgroundComputer-assisted techniques for surgical treatment of femoral deformities have become increasingly important. In state-of-the-art 3D...
-
Axial orientation of the femoral trochlea is superior to femoral anteversion for predicting patellar instability
PurposeThe femoral anteversion angle is considered to be the same as femoral torsion; however, the femoral anteversion angle is strongly influenced...
-
Proximal external femoral torsion increases lateral femoral shaft bowing: a study based on 3D CT reconstruction models
PurposeFemoral bowing influences the genesis and management of knee osteoarthritis (OA). The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship...
-
Local torsion of distal femur is a risk factor for patellar dislocation
PurposeIt has been widely reported that femoral anteversion is a risk factor for patellar dislocation. This study aims to evaluate whether internal...
-
Consistency of 3D femoral torsion measurement from MRI compared to CT gold standard
BackgroundSeveral hip and knee pathologies are associated with aberrant femoral torsion. Diagnostic workup includes computed tomography (CT) and...
-
Excessive femoral torsion is not associated with patellofemoral pain or instability if TKA is functionally aligned and the patella denervated
PurposeRecent data suggest that individual morphologic factors should be respected to restore preoperative patellofemoral alignment and thus reduce...
-
Torsional stability of fixation methods in basicervical femoral neck fractures: a biomechanical study
BackgroundBasicervical femoral neck fracture is a rare proximal femur fracture with a high implant failure rate. Biomechanical comparisons between...

RETRACTED ARTICLE: Computer-aided design combined with 3D-printed osteotomy guide-assisted derotational distal femoral osteotomy for treating recurrent patellar dislocation with increased femoral anteversion angle: a retrospective study
PurposeDerotational distal femoral osteotomy (DDFO) has good clinical outcomes for the treatment of the recurrent patellar dislocation combined with...
-
Reliability and validity of a mobile application for femoral anteversion measurement in adult patients
BackgroundFemoral torsion is primarily measured by computed tomography (CT), which has cost and radiation exposure concerns. Recently, femoral...
