Correlation in the Coronal Angle between Knee and Hindfoot Was Observed in Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis Unless Talocrural Joint Was Destroyed
Figure 2
The correlation between FTA and THFA of (a) all patients in this cohort, (b) hindfoot preserved patients (Larsen grade of both talocrural subtalar joints < 2), (c) talocrural joint preserved (Larsen grade < 2) but subtalar joint affected (Larsen grade > 3), and (d) both talocrural and subtalar joints affected (Larsen grade > 3) is shown. Note that there is significant correlation between FTA and THFA as long as talocrural joint is preserved.
