Construction and Biomechanical Properties of PolyAxial Self-Locking Anatomical Plate Based on the Geometry of Distal Tibia

Figure 1

(a) The measurement of tibia anatomic lengths by spiral CT scanning. The torsion section was divided into four equal parts and the outer side torsion angle was measured individually in these four parts. (b) Measurement of the tibia twisting angle by CT scanner. (c) The length of the twisting segment of the lateral tibia surface, the twisting angle of the lateral surface of tibia in the first quarter, the second quarter, the third quarter, and the fourth quarter as well as the anteversion angle of the lateral surface of distal tibia were measured both in male and female individuals.
