Abstract

Introduction: Quadriceps femoris angle (Q-angle) is the angle between the quadriceps load vector and PATELLAr tendon load vector. It is shown that individual with Q-angle more than 15 degrees would display an increase in rear foot eversion and tibial internal rotation. The purpose of the present study was to determine the Q-angle in CHILDren and ADULTs in Bandar Abbas, Iran. Method & Material: In this cross-sectional study, a random sample of 399 first year primary school pupils and third year high school students, with no history of knee disorders were selected. The right Q-angle was measured goniometrically with subjects standing in an erect position. The results were analyzed by using ANOVA and t-test statistical methods where p<0.05 was considered as significant. Results: Mean Q-angle in 7 years pupils was significantly lower than that from 17 years old students (9.27 vs. 10.65, p<0.0001). No difference in mean Q-angle was found between 7 years old male and female pupils, whereas, it was significantly different in 17 years old male and female students (p<0.001). Conclusion: Q-angle in this study was lower than that from other studies in the literature. This may probably be due to high incidence of genuvarus in Bandar Abbas.
