COMPARATIVE CHARACTERISTICS OF METHODS ASSESSMENTS OF THE CURVATURE OF ARTICULAR SURFACES
Abstract
The purpose of the study is to identify the most accurate and effective method for determining the curvature of the articular surfaces of the articular bones of the knee joint.
Material and methods. The material was 20 knee joints of amputated limbs of elderly and senile persons without injuries or diseases of the musculoskeletal system. Two methods for determining the curvature of articular surfaces were compared: using a patented device (patent No. 2011153311/13, 2011.12.27, Pavlovskaya E.A., Slesarenko N.A. Vlasenko A.N.) [1] and using a radius template (GOST 4126-82).
Results. Numerical values of the radii of curvature of identical sections of the articular surface of the medial femoral condyle were obtained using two methods. However, no significant difference was found between the compared methods for determining curvature.
Conclusions. The least labor-intensive and less expensive method for determining the curvature of the articular surface is the radius template measurement method.
