Abstract

Introduction: The study of the dimensions of the head of femur is important for hip replacement surgery as for the use of appropriate prosthesis. The dimensions differ according to age, race, heredity, and geographical area.

Objective: To evaluate the morphometric parameters of the head of femur and analyze them statistically.

Material and Methods: 114 human adults’ dry Femur bones were used for study. The measurement was done to know the average transverse and vertical diameter of the head of Femur. All measurements were done with the help of Vernier calipers.

Results: The following are the mean values of transverse and vertical diameters of head of femur for114 bones. Mean transverse diameter of the head of Femur was 4.250.29 cm on the left side and 4.220.28 cm on right side. The mean vertical diameter of the head of Femur was 4.210.30 cm on the left side and 4.220.29 cm on right side.
