Abstract:
The morphology of proximal femur is an essential parameter in the design and
development of implant for total hip replacement (THR). Inappropriate implant
design and size could affect outcome of the surgery with reported complications
such as stress shielding, micro motion and loosening. The problem of study was
that hip joint are most frequently affected by severe injury that make it to be
replaced by artificial one ;so its most important to To establish standard
measurements of the proximal femur neck in adult Sudanese population.the study
found ;
Regarding sex-related differences, and according to our finding there is significant
statistical difference between genders where the (CH) was found to be larger in
males than females, and also (CN) was found to be larger males than females and
the same results was found according to (LN), while according to the (FNA)is also
was found to be larger males than females and also(LN) was found to be larger
males than females , and also (FNA) was found to be larger males than females.
And regarding the differences between right and left proximal femur neck there is
no significant different according to the result showed by the statistical analysis.the
study concluded that
In our study 100 subjects, 200 femurs were included in the morphemtry of the
proximal femur neck, were 4 parameters were measured and the result was that
there was no significant difference between right and left femoral and there were
significant difference between male and female subjects where most parameters
were larger in males than females.
