Abstract
In cases with excessive anteversion even after adolescence, surgeons have to choose osteotomy surgery to modify this abnormality. This surgery and modifying the anatomical problem does not necessarily lead to modify the patients’ gait cycle abnormalities; the authors’ hypothesis is the probable reason may be the persistence of the implement of the patients’ kinematics compensation mechanism even after the surgery. This mechanism is used to almost correct the gait of those with excessive anteversion. First, by using gait analysis text books, a patient’s gait cycle is analyzed; this analysis is consist of 3DGA with EMG and observational gait. Then, by using OpenSim, the patient’s patterns of...
