Article Synopsis
  • The study evaluates whether the Insall-Salvati and Caton-Deschamps ratios align with normal distribution patterns in healthy knees, using data from 434 CT-scanned knees.
  • Results showed that while the Insall-Salvati ratio identified the 98th centile correctly for patella alta, it overdiagnosed patella baja, while the Caton-Deschamps index also revealed discrepancies in diagnosing patella baja at the 5th centile.
  • Overall, the study found poor inter-rater reliability between the two ratios, as indicated by a kappa coefficient of 0.01.
