The anterior center edge angle in Lequesne’s false profile view: interrater correlation, dependence on pelvic tilt and correlation to anterior acetabular coverage in the sagital plane. A cadaver study
2009
Introduction
Lequesne’s vertical-center-anterior margin (VCA) angle measured on the false profile view of the pelvis aims at quantifying the anterior acetabular coverage of the femoral head. The anterior delimitation of the acetabular roof is often defined on the false profile view but there are no data on its interrater reliability. Additionally, it is not known how pelvic tilt may influence this angle. Finally, the plane in which this angle is measured lies at an angle of 65° to the sagittal plane and we wondered if this angle would be transposable to the anterior acetabular coverage measured in the sagittal plane.
