A generalization of Chevrot's method for determining anteversion and cervico-diaphyseal angles

JJ Vanhoutte and DE Raeside

Chevrot's method for determining the angle between the axis of the femoral shaft and the axis of the femoral neck (the cervico-diaphyseal angle), and the angle between the axis of the femoral neck and the diacondylar plane (the anteversion angle) has been investigated and generalized. Mathematical formulae giving the anteversion and cervico- diaphyseal angles in terms of two x-ray tube angles and two measured projections of the cervico-diaphyseal angle have been derived. These formulae facilitate preparation of computer programs and tables for the routine clinical determination of the anteversion and cervico- diaphyseal angles.
