Can the Apex of Tibial Tubercle Represent the Insertion of Patellar Tendon in Measurement of Quadriceps Angles? Imaging Verification

2020-03-10

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Background Clinical measurement of a quadriceps angle (Q-angle) has yet achieved consensus. The patellar stability is generally low despite that the tibial tubercle (TT) is fixed. The aim of this retrospective study was to verify whether the lower arm of a Q-angle (i.e. the patellar tendon [PT]) can be represented by the localization of TT. Methods The locations of the apex of TT and th...
