Comparative Study of Angle of Inclination and Neck Length of Dry Femur

open access: yesJournal of Nobel Medical College, 2017
Background : The angle of inclination of the femur is the angle formed between long axis of neck of femur and long axis of the shaft of femur. The average angle of inclination (neck–shaft angle) is 126°, ranging from 115° to 140° in the adult population.
