Knee joint is modified complex synovial joint perform wide range of three dimension movement. Arthritis of knee joint joint needs intervention as total knee arthroplasty and unicompartment knee arthroplasty commonly. This study provide useful data for those surgeries. In present studycollected data on the morphometry of both tibiofemoral articulation play a unique role in conduction of body weight. Morphometry of tibial plateau is used to guide treatment and monitor outcome of total knee replacement. Measurements of tibia plateau are of immense help in designing tibial prosthesis.Aim: My study was aimed at analyzing Three different parameters of tibia were measured and their mean values were determined.Materials and Methods: In the present study,a total thirty, adult fully ossified dry tibia, unknown sex and without any deformity were collected from Department of Anatomy of Kanti Devi Medical College ,Mathura for evaluation .Took various parameter of superior end by using a Vernier caliper and rular.Result & Conclusion: The TTT area is greater in the right tibia when compared with the left tibia. The mean area of MTC of the right tibia is greater than the area of MTC of the left tibia, whereas the mean area of LTC of the right tibia is smaller than the area of LTC of the left tibia. This study will be useful for anatomist, forensic anthropologist and orthopedics in cases total knee arthroplasty, unicompartment knee arthroplasty and meniscal transplantation.
