Posterior tibial slope correlated with metaphyseal inclination more than metaphyseal height

Excessive posterior tibial slope (PTS) is an independent risk factor for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) failure, but it remains unclear how PTS relates to other proximal tibial morphologic parameters. The purpose of this study was to analyse sagittal tibial metaphysis morphology, and to calculate the correlation coefficients of PTS with anatomical features.
