ANTHROPOMETRICSTUDY OF PROXIMAL END OF DRIED ADULT HUMAN FEMUR: A CROSS SECTIONAL STUDY

Abstract

Introduction: Femur is the longest and strongest bone of the human body. Its length is associated with a striding gait, its strength with weight and muscular forces. It comprises of an upper end, shaft and lower end. Proximal part of femur includes head, neck, greater and lesser trochanters. Objectives: The present study aimed to record the femoral length and head diameter parameters were carried out which would be of help to the orthopedicians while carrying out surgical repairs around the hip joint especially in fracture of the neck of femur. Material & Methods: A total of 100 North Indian unpaired dry adult human femora (Right-50, Left-50) of unknown sex were studied. Femoral length and Head Diameter of the femur were measured with the help of osteometeric board and vernier caliper and recorded in centimeters. The raw data obtained were statistically analyzed. Range, mean, standard deviation, and standard error of mean were determined. Results: - The mean femoral length was found to 43.93cm (Right- 44.53cm and Left- 43.33cm) with a range of 38.5 – 58.8cm (Right = 38.5 – 58.8cm and Left=38.5 – 51.3cm). The mean femoral head diameter was 39.35mm (Right = 39.86mm and Left =38.84mm) with a range of 20 – 47mm (Right = 20 – 46mm and Left = 32 - 47mm). No significant difference in values of femoral parameters were found in the right and left femur. Conclusion: The overall goal of this study was to generate information that would be useful for geometric modeling of femora and collecting data which could prove useful for the development of prosthetic implants.
