dc.description.abstractThe quadriceps (Q) angle is a clinical measure of the alignment of the quadriceps femoris musculature relative to the underlying skeletal structures of the pelvis, femur and tibia(1). Patellar malalignment, the most important reason for anterior knee pain is commonly determined by the Q angle. In this study we aimed to investigate the Q angle differences in 135 healthy young individuals without any complaints of knee. The mean age of the 75 male participants was 20,2 and of 60 female participants was 19,53. The participants were measured by a goniometer in upright position with a standardized foot position. The measurement points used were the right anterior superior iliac spine, the right tibial tuberosity and the midpoint of right patellae. We reported the Q angle of each participant also the age and body mass index. We used SPSS PC programme for statistical analysis. Independent Samples Test was used for comparements. P < 0,05 was accepted as statistically significant. In conclusion we found significant difference in Q angle values of male and female subjects.en_US
