A optimised method for quantifying glenoid orientation
, International Journal of Shoulder Surgery, Vol: 2, Pages: 25-29, ISSN: 0973-6042A robust quantification method is essential for inter-subject glenoid comparison and planning of total shoulder arthroplasty. This study compared various scapular and glenoid axes with each other in order to optimally define the most appropriate method of quantifying glenoid version and inclination.Six glenoid and eight scapular axes were defined and quantified from identifiable landmarks of twenty-one scapular image scans. Pathology independency and insensitivity of each axis to inter-subject morphological variation within its region was tested. Glenoid version and inclination were calculated using the best axes from the two regions.The best glenoid axis was the normal to a least-square plane fit on the glenoid rim, directed approximately medio-laterally. The best scapular axis was the normal to a plane formed by the spine root and lateral border ridge. Glenoid inclination was 15.7° ± 5.1° superiorly and version was 4.9° ± 6.1°, retroversion.The choice of axes in the present technique makes it insensitive to pathology and scapular morphological variabilities. Its application would effectively improve inter-subject glenoid version comparison, surgical planning and design of prostheses for shoulder arthroplasty.

The width:thickness ratio of the patella: an aid in knee arthroplasty.
, Clin Orthop Relat Res., Vol: 466(5), Pages: 1198-1203Establishing the appropriate size of the patellar implant-bone composite is one of the important steps ensuring functional success in arthroplasty. Conventionally, the patella is measured intraoperatively and its thickness is used to guide the depth of resection. However, in a diseased joint, this may not reflect the native patellar thickness. We studied the relationship between the patellar thickness and various patellar dimensions on three-dimensional reconstructed computed tomographic scans from 37 normal adult knees. Patellar width correlated with thickness. The average patellar width:thickness ratio was 2.0 (standard deviation, 0.106; 95% confidence interval, 1.96-2.03). The cartilage thickness was on average 2.5 mm (standard deviation, 1.0). The width:thickness ratio was similar in 79 digital radiographs taken before TKA of knees without patellofemoral disease (mean, 2.1; standard deviation, 0.28). When compared with the two other methods for calculating patellar resection described in the literature, the width:thickness ratio was more reliable. The width:thickness ratio appears anatomically constant and may be a useful guide for estimating premorbid patellar thickness.

The attachments of the anteromedial and posterolateral fibre bundles of the anterior cruciate ligament: Part 1: tibial attachment.
, Knee Surg Sports Traumatol Arthrosc, Vol: 15, Pages: 1414-1421, ISSN: 0942-2056The tibial attachments of the individual anteromedial (AM) and posterolateral (PL) fibre bundles and the entire attachment of the anterior cruciate ligament are described, relating them to consistent bony landmarks; 55 fresh-frozen specimens were measured. The fibre bundles were separated and excised at their attachments and their peripheries marked with a pen. High-resolution scaled digital photographs were taken of each dissected specimen and transferred onto a computer for analysis. A wide variation was found when using the posterior tibial axis, the anterior tibial surface and the medial tibial spine as reference points. The most consistent measurements used the tibial interspinous "over-the-back" ridge as a datum. The attachments of the PL and AM bundles were centred 10 +/- 1 mm (mean +/- SD) and 17 +/- 2 mm anterior to the over-the-back ridge. They were 4 +/- 1 and 5 +/- 1 mm, respectively, lateral to the medial tibial spine border. The positions of 6 mm circles in the posterior-medial limits of the fibre bundles (representing tunnels in a double-tunnel reconstruction) were measured. The overall dimensions of the tibial plateaux correlated significantly with many measurements. The results from this study could be used to guide ACL reconstruction techniques.
