title: [Transverse skeletal axes of the lower extremity in coxarthrosis].
abstract: Femoral anteversion, anteversion of the acetabulum and tibial torsion of 47 patients with idiopathic osteoarthritis of the hip were determined by computerized tomography. From all these parameters only the anteversion of the acetabulum showed differing values in hips with and without osteoarthritis. There was a considerable range at the individual measured values in all parameters and differences between the male and female groups could be found in femoral anteversion and anteversion of the acetabulum.
