Traditional images of the distal femur place the intercondylar groove midway between the condyles. The location of the sulcus of the intercondylar groove in a large Sudanese skeletal population was verified using a custom stereotactic device. The results of this study show that the femoral sulcus is lateral to the midplane between the 2 femoral condyles. This study also shows that the configuration of the sulcus is linear and is oriented between the traditional anatomic and mechanical axes of the femur.
