A study of central edge angle of wiberg of acetabulum radiologically, among Haryanvi population

Abstract

The present study was conducted in Department of Anatomy, on 200 persons (100 males and 100 females) of all age group of Haryana region. The AP view of radiographs of right and left hip joints were taken after written consent. The central edge angle of wiberg of both hips were measured. The mean CE angle of wiberg in males was 37.52±4.75 degree in right side and 40.25±7.75 in left side. Similarly in females 36.45±7.47 degree and 39.34±6.96 in right and left side respectively and mean value of central edge angle of wiberg was more in males as compared to females both in left and right hip. . Hence knowledge of these parameters of hips can be used for better understanding of osteoarthrosis and acetabular dysplasia prevalence.
