Distal femoral arthropometry in Nigerians and its correlation to total knee replacement implants

CONCLUSION: This study has provided measurements that can be considered when the designing of a suitable femoral component of total knee prosthesis for Nigerians. This study also provided equations that can be used to estimate the dimensions of the medial and the lateral condyles and femoral length from parts of distal femur in forensic medicine.FUNDING: Self-funded.PMID:35957927 | PMC:PMC9334967 | DOI:10.4314/gmj.v55i4.3
