peer agreement (net): +1| antetorsión femoral fisiológica physiological femoral anteversion Explanation: Femoral anteversion (syn. inset hip; femoral torsion). The normal hip joint at maturity has a similar degree of external and internal rotation. In this condition children have considerably increased internal and decreased external rotation. Examine in extension with patient prone. These children often sit in so-called “TV position. ... 1. In-toeing is usually present. 2 2 . Compensatory valgus deviation of the feet may develop “Flat feet.” 3 3 . Knock-knee in older children and adults is almost always due to this excessive physiological anteversion. http://www.bgf.asn.au/downloads/research/OrthSurg2008_2.pdf Q: Vince, let's start with intoeing. What should we do about it? A: It can be caused by femoral anteversion, internal tibial torsion and metatarsus varus or adductus. Femoral anteversion is measured by the number of degrees of internal and external rotation at the hip. http://www.seattlechildrens.org/healthcare-professionals/res... # [PDF] Rotational deformities of the lower limb in children – a primary ...

| Reference: "excessive femoral..." Source points out that some anteversion/antetorsion is normal and... Reference information: ...that anteversion and antetorsion are really synonymous, so according to the expert, referring to a pathological degree of anteversion/antetorsion should require a modifier, such as "excessive" or "abnormal". From the discussion in that source and some of the Internet usage I see, some writers want "anteversion" to refer to the normal condition of the femur (which is somewhat anteverted) and reserve "antetorsion" for a pathological (abnormal or excessive) degree of forward twisting. I find some use of such modifiers along this line BUT, apparently the majority of people in the field just 'know' you are referring to an excessive degree when they see it in context (and that is logical). The WHO ICD-10 list (posted elsewhere) uses "anteversion" without a modifier, so I guess it isn't strictly needed. Thanks to David Brown (above), whose finds helped me find what I did.

| Reference: Antetorsion and anteversion Reference information: Femoral anteversion (FV) is the angle of the femoral neck anterior to the femoral shaft in the coronal plane, that affects the rotation of the hip joint. Femoral antetorsion (FT) is an increase in the angle of the head and neck of the femur relative to the femoral condyles. http://www.asbweb.org/conferences/1990s/1998/103/index.html Increased femoral antetorsion (excessive femoral anteversion) (5) causes internal rotation at the hip throughout all phases of gait, regardless of whether ... journals.lww.com › ... › July/August 2003 - Volume 23 - Issue 4 -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2 days17 hrs (2009-12-15 07:43:09 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- I am not a medical doctor but in my opinion "antetorsion" is not common in English. "Internal torsion" appears to used much more for this condition. This reference is from an article published in a British Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery, by native English authors. I say this because many references in Google are translations into English. the terms 'anteversion' and 'internal femoral torsion' could be used synonymously. Uncompensated significant internal femoral version (marked femoral ... www.jbjs.org.uk/cgi/reprint/91-B/10/1388.pdf If you are wondering who to give the points to, "anteversion" would be my choice (Sorry, Liz) |
