dc.description.abstractIntroduction: The surgeries over the proximal end of femur is common procedure in orthopaedics. Knowledge ofproximal femur’s morphometry can be helpful in reducing the risk of complications linked to surgeries done inthis region due to vascular, metabolic or traumatic causes. The present study is therefore conducted to providedata on the morphometric values of proximal femur and to customize the implant design to suit the Telanganapopulation and thereby reducing the complications.Objectives: 1.To study the various measurements of proximal end of femur 2. To compare the results withprevious studies.Materials and Methods: A total of 180 dry femur have been collected from Department of Anatomy, MamataMedical College. With the aid of the vernier calliper, goniometer and osteometric board, measurements such asfemoral length, transverse diameter of the head, anterior neck length and angle of the neck shaft were measured.Results: The average length of the left femur was 43.33 ± 2.72 cm and 42.95 ± 3.29 cm of the right femur. Theanterior neck length of the right femur was 2.69 ± 0.41 cm, and left femur was 2.61 ±0.34 cm. The neck shaft angleof left femur was 120.3° ± 5.26 and right femur was 119.92° ± 6.27.Conclusion: Relative to other populations, this study showed the measurements of proximal femur in Telanganapopulation were different. The results of this study can be significant in anthropological and medico-legalpractice as well as for the diagnosis and treatment planning of radiologists and orthopaedic surgeons.en_US
