Abstract:
BACKGROUND: Whether the proximal tibial osteotomy in Mongolia populations has difference with other populations at home and abroad remains unclear.OBJECTIVE: To analyze the anatomical characters of the proximal tibial osteotomy in Mongolia populations in the northern region of China by measuring the relevant linear parameters.METHODS: Thirty-eight healthy Mongolia populations were selected, and their bilateral knee joints were scanned by CT.The original data were exported in DICOM format. Mimics software was used to reconstruct the knee three-dimensional model. The tibial data stored in STL format were imported into 3-matic software, showing the medial surface of the tibia,and 6 mm below the medial tibial plateau maintaining 7° posterior slop was subjected to total hip arthroplasty osteotomy.Subsequently, the relevant parameters were measured.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) The left tibia transverse diameter was (79.99±3.70) mm, and the right was (80.25±4.01) mm. The left anteroposterior diameter was (52.27±3.07) mm, and the right was (51.75±2.40) mm. The anteroposterior diameter of medial tibia was (55.40±2.00) mm (left), and (56.67±2.47) mm (right); the lateral was (49.84±2.78) mm (left), and (49.58±2.80) mm (right). (2) In Mongolian populations, the linear parameters showed no significant differences between two sides of the proximal tibial osteotomy (P > 0.05). The anteroposterior diameter of medial tibia was longer than that of lateral one (P > 0.05). The linear parameters of the proximal tibial osteotomy in male were significantly larger than those in female (P < 0.05). There were differences in the linear parameters of the proximal tibial osteotomy between Mongolian populations and other populations. (3)These results indicate that there are significant differences in the anatomical morphology of the tibial plateau between western and eastern countries.Besides, the geometric parameters of the tibial plateau may be different in different ethnic groups and regions. It is necessary to use the digital orthopedic technique to investigate and analyze the large sample data of different ethnic groups in different regions.
