The mean VCA in our population was 6.03°; however, the wide distribution of the VCA in our patients does not support the use of a fixed value. The severity of the pre-operative varus seems to be an independent factor with a positive correlation to the VCA and may also provide a clue to the ideal VCA if measurement of this angle is not available.
