The incidence of KA was significantly associated with the macroregion. Nearly 15.8% of the population may show grades III and IV VA sulcus ossification, and surgical treatment is required in some patients. KA formation is more typical for males. A population study is warranted to clarify the frequency of KA in the Russian population.
