The Ranawat Award. Sulcus morphology of the distal femur.

Traditional images of the distal femur place the intercondylar groove midway between the condyles. The location of the sulcus of the intercondylar groove in a large Sudanese skeletal population was verified using a custom stereotactic device. The results of this study show that the femoral sulcus is lateral to the midplane between the 2 femoral condyles. This study also shows that the configuration of the sulcus is linear and is oriented between the traditional anatomic and mechanical axes of the femur.
