Lower extremity alignment can influence the load distribution on the joints, mechanical efficiency of the muscles. Among these different aligment variables, femoral anteversion has been identified as a risk factor for hip and knee joint injury.
Craig’s test is designed to determine a patient’s anatomical hip alignment in anteversion of retroversion. Patients with an anteverted hip usually have more internal rotation range of motion than external range of motion. They also have a tendency to develop knee valgus which might be a factor in several knee pathologies. Anteversion is more common in females who – on average – have a wider pelvis a larger Q-angle. For patients with a retroverted hip, this is usually the other way around. So they have more external rotation than internal rotation and a tendency to have bow legs.
