Sažetak
Aim: The aim of this study was to analyze the shape of the Blumensaat's line and the relationship with lateral intercondylar ridge on the lateral radiographic view. Patients and Methods: On twelve femoral specimens, the lateral intercondylar ridge were labeled with the thin wire. A full lateral view with the distal femur was taken. At the X-ray we analyzed the radiographic shape of the Blumensaat’s line and a possible difference of the radiographic density during its course. The angle between lateral intercondylar ridge and Blumensaat’s line was calculated as well. Results: The Blumensaat’s line was straight in 25% of specimens. In 75% the posterior part had convexity. Regarding the radiographic density the BL could be divided into three parts. The density of the anterior and posterior was similar as the cortical bone, while the middle part corresponds to the cancellous bone. The posterior part was the longest. The lateral intercondylar ridge and the Blumensaat’s line formed the angle of average 62,40 and intersect with the LIR at the point which divides the posterior part of the BL at the 58%:42% ratio. Conclusion: In 25% the Blumensaat’s line was straight. In 75% of the specimens the posterior convexity was observed. The lateral interc ondylar ridge and the Blumenssat’s line formed the angle of the 62,50. They intersected at the point which divides the posterior part in the 58:42 ratio.
