Femoral anteversion and the rotational profile of the distal femur were negatively correlated with the degree of femoral varus in Asian women with varus osteoarthritic knees. This study enhanced the understanding of the relationship between changes in coronal alignment of the femur and tibia and their rotational profiles in patients with varus osteoarthritic lower limbs, although this study was limited by the small sample sizes and methodological quality.
