Study of neck shaft angle of femur in population of Bihar [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Research in Medical Sciences, 2017
Background: Neck shaft angle is the angle formed between the long axis of shaft and long axis of neck. Neck shaft angle of femur is an important parameter considering the biomechanics of hip joint.

The neck-shaft angle: an update on reference values and associated factors. [PDF]

open access: yesActa Orthop, 2020
Background and purpose - The neck-shaft angle (NSA) is valuable for diagnostics and therapy of the hip, but current reference values derive mostly from studies on anatomic specimens, small cohorts, or are hospital-based. Moreover, associated factors such as age, sex, or anthropometric data have rarely been considered.

Femoral Neck Shaft Angle in Men with Fragility Fractures

open access: yesJournal of Osteoporosis, 2011
Introduction. Femoral neck shaft angle (NSA) has been reported to be an independent predictor of hip fracture risk in men. We aimed to assess the role of NSA in UK men. Methods. The NSA was measured manually from the DXA scan printout in men with hip (62,

Finite element analysis of the influence of femoral neck system implantation angle on biomechanical stability in femoral neck fractures: a mechanistic exploration [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Musculoskeletal Disorders
Background Femoral neck fractures pose significant therapeutic challenges. The femoral neck system (FNS) has emerged as a promising implant. However, deviations in the nail-shaft angle during FNS placement may compromise biomechanical stability, yet ...
