The femoral bowing angle (FBA) was defined as the angle made by the mid-diaphyseal lines of the proximal and distal parts of the femur (a). The tibial bowing angle (TBA) was defined as the angle made by the lines bisecting the proximal and distal parts of the tibia (b). The neck-shaft angle (NSA) of the femur was defined as the angle formed between the line bisecting the femoral neck and a bisector of the proximal diaphysis (c).
