The Five Common Types of Normal Coronal Limb Alignment in a Taiwanese Population. The neutral alignment group consisted of two types (type 1 and type 2); the varus alignment group comprised 2 types (type 3, type 4); and the valgus alignment group consisted of one type (type 5). The black color indicates the femur or tibia in neutral alignment, the brown color indicates varus of the femur or tibia, and the blue color indicates valgus of the femur. HKAA, hip–knee–ankle angle; mLDFA, mechanical lateral distal femoral angle; mMPTA, mechanical medial proximal tibial angle
