Study of the Collo-diaphyseal Angle of the Femur of Corpses in the Anatomy Department of the PUC-SP Medical School

In Brazilian literature the works are scarce on the collo-diaphyseal angle (CDA) in Brazilians, as well as, in relation to the other measures that can be acquired in the proximal portion of the femur, as the femur axle length (FAL), femur neck width (FNW), and the femur head diameter (FHD).This stud...
