3D-validation of a simple tool to measure tibiofemoral axial rotation in tibial plateau fractures KU Leuven
OBJECTIVES: Rotated tibial plateau fractures (TPF) frequently involve multiple planes of movement, yet current presurgical assessment methods do not account for tibiofemoral axial rotation. This study introduces and validates a simple tool to measure rotation-the Gerdy-Tibial-Tuberosity-Surgical-Epicondylar-Axis (GTT-SEA) angle. METHODS: Forty-seven preoperative 2D CT from a TPF database at a tertiary trauma center were retrieved, and 3D models ...
