The influence of the genu varum and the genu valgum on malalignment of the lower limb

내반슬, 외반슬의 부정정렬이 하지에 미치는 영향

The influence of the genu varum and the genu valgum in two groups of twenty adult man with deformation on hip joint, knee joint, ankle joint is as follows. 1. Each and all, the statistics that measure tibiofemorial angle indicated the group of the genu varum 168 1.42 and the group of the genu valgum 193 2.21, that was more larger or smaller than normal angle 183 of tibiofemorial. The measure Q-Angle(patellofemorial) indicates the group of the genu varum 9 1.5, the genu valgum 19 2.3, that was larger or smaller than normal angle 13. 2. It showed that range of motion hip joint adduction in the group of the genu varum was more larger than normal range of motion hip joint abduction in the group of the genu valgum was more larger than normal range of motion, hip joint internal rotation in the group of the genu valgum was more larger than normal range of motion, hip joint external rotation in the group of the genu varum was more larger than normal range of motion. 3. range of motion knee joint flexion was simillar to two groups of the genu varum and the genu valgum. On tibial tortion of the leg, the group of the genu varum indicated medial tibial tortion, and the genu valgum indicated lateral tibial tortion. 4. Each groups of the genu varum and the genu valgum in plantarflexion and dorsiflexion of ankle joint. With peak angle, the group of the genu varum showed toe-in that was more smaller than normal angle, and the group of the genu valgum showed toe-out that was more larger than normal angle.
