Anatomy. Elsevier; 1990. The diagram depicts the sexual dimorphism in the human pelvis. Part A illustrates the female pelvis to have a more circular inlet than the male when seen from the superior view and a longer superior pubic ramus. Part B depicts the lateral view

Comparing female and male ACL anatomy, female ACLs were smaller in length, cross-sectional

comparing CR with PS TKA showed PS knees had a better range of motion (ROM) by 2.4 degrees and a higher functional Knee Society Score (KSS) by 2.3 points. These results, although statistically significant, are not clinically meaningful. In most of the included studies in this meta

comparing male and female distal femoral anatomy, females tend to have less prominent anterior

compared with the knee but is still a possibility. If a new incision is made, consideration should be given to preserving an adequate skin bridge between incisions, particularly if the index surgery was a recent one. Around the knee, the recommended distance between incision is 7 cm.99

anatomy. The underlying condition should be considered because this affects surgical planning and expected outcomes. General considerations Knee In TKA for patients with hypermobility, minimal bony resections should be made to start, resecting 8 to 9 mm or less off the distal femur, depending on degree

anatomy disruption.13 With preservation of the posterior capsule and short external rotators, this approach may lead to decreased risk for posterior dislocation, as well as the possible benefit of early functional recovery.14-16 Supine patient positioning on a regular table or modified fracture table facilitates patient monitoring, assessment
