Abstract
Introduction: The modified femoral neck shaft angle is defined as the angle between femoral shaft axis and modified femoral neck axis. Line drawn from upper most extension of greater trochanter, crossing the centre of two circles that is upper circle is positioned at the outer margins of the sub-trochanteric femur, the centre of this circle is placed by the lower boundary of the lesser trochanter whereas, the lower one is placed above the end of the scan. The objective of the our study is to determine the bilateral inconsistency in the mean value of modified femoral neck shaft angle.
Materials and Methods: The study group was comprised of 100 CT images (54 Females and 46 males) of pelvis in scout view of patient. All the measurements were done using CT images with the help of Simens 128 slice CT machine and software syngo CT VA48A.
Result-Comparison of right and left modified NSA by sex as following the value of mean and Standard deviation for mNSA in right side of female were found 145.720 (8.39) and right side of male were found 147.63° (6.74). p value for right side in both genders were 0.283.The value of mean and Standard deviation for mNSA in left side of female were found 145.13° (8.75) and left side of male were found 146.39° (6.35). p value for left side in both genders were 0.407.
Conclusion: In male, the modified neck shaft angle of femur is more as compared to female in any age group.
