Abstract:
[Objective]To measure the posterior sloope angle of proximal tibial medial meniscus(PSAPTMM) in Chinese adult,provide parameters for improving the design of knee prosthesis more suitable for Chinese and for resecting tibial plateau in total knee arthroplasty.[Method]Sixty-three male knees and 52 female knees of Chinese,without tibial deformity,genu varum and valgum,abnormal change of articular surface,and tibial trauma,with average age of 45.6 years(ranged,20~74 years,were divided into 3 groups according to persons age: group A,18~39 years;group B,40~50 years;group C,more than 60 years.The sagital tomography of medial meniscus of MRI were taken,stored,and measured using JENNY way.The data were analyzed statistically.[Result]By two factors analysis,the sex and age had no significant influence on PSAPTMM,and the angle was not different between the left and right knee.In male adult,the average degree of left PSAPTMM was(2.7?1.8,of the right(2.9?1.7)? with an average degree of both sides of(2.9?1.8.In female adult,the average degree of left PSAPTMM was(3.5?1.7,of the right(2.8?1.6,with the average degree of both sides(3.2?1.7.The average degree of group A were(3.6?1.6,group B(2.7?1.8,group C(2.8?1.7.There showed no significant difference of PSAPTMM between sex,side,and age.[Conclusion]The average degree of PSAPTMM in northern Chinese adult is(3.0?1.7,ranges from(0~6.2,and is larger than that of the westerns.
