Whether the posterior tibial slope (PTS) is associated with the femoral condylar shape has remained unclear. Classical anatomical studies considered the sagittal profiles of femoral condyles to consist of two circles. Recently, an elliptical method was described to simplify the “two circles” model. Our purpose was to analyze the relationship between the PTS and the shape of the sagittal femoral condyle, that is, two circles and two ellipses, using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans.
