Definition of tibial axis deviation. The percentages of anatomical tibial axis deviation (%ATAD) and mechanical tibial axis deviation (%MTAD) are defined as the ratio of the distance from the medial edge of the proximal tibia to the passing points of the anatomical axis and mechanical axis on the tibial surface (A and M) and to the width of the proximal tibia (P), respectively. The percentage is calculated by multiplying this ratio by 100%
