The study established constant ratios of the studied linear distances around the proximal tibia. Considering these ratios, asymmetrical tibial components in knee arthroplasty seem to replicate the native anatomy more closely. Furthermore, the distance from the anterior margin of the proximal surface to the tibial tuberosity peak, constituting one-tenth of the longitudinal length of the tibia, shows promise as a metric system for imaging studies, especially in assessing lesions around tibial components.
