maç: Bu çalışma, fovea capitis femoris’in (FCF) kuru femur üzerindeki morfometrik ve morfolojik özelliklerini incelemek, lokasyonunu ve morfolojik tiplerini belirlemek amacıyla yapılmıştır.
Materyal ve Metot: FCF, 57 yetişkin kuru femur (27 sağ; 30 sol) ve dijital görüntüleri üzerinde morfometrik ve morfolojik olarak analiz edildi. FCF’nin boyutları ve yüzey alanı, kuru kemik üzerinde bir dijital kumpas ve dijital görüntüler üzerinde ImageJ yazılımı kullanılarak ölçüldü.
Bulgular: FCF’nin enine uzunluğu (p<0,001) ve FCF’nin yüzey alanının (p=0,007) sol uyluk kemiklerinde sağ uyluk kemiklerine göre daha büyük olduğu bulundu. Tip 1 lokalizasyon, FCF’nin en yaygın lokalizasyon tipiydi. En yaygın morfolojik tip oval şekilli FCF (%43,8) olarak bulunurken, bunu yuvarlak (%40,4), üçgen (%10,5) ve piriform (%5,3) tipler izledi.
Sonuç: Bu çalışma, FCF’nin çoğunlukla posteroinferior kadranda yerleştiğini ve genellikle oval veya yuvarlak olduğunu göstermektedir. Bu çalışmada elde edilen bulgular hem klinik hem de antropolojik uygulamada faydalı bilgiler sağlayabilir.

im: This study was performed to examine morphometric and morphological characteristics of the fovea for ligament of head of femur (FLHOF) on the dry femur to determine its location and morphological types.
Material and Method: FLHOF was analyzed morphometrically and morphologically on 57 dry adult femora (27 right; 30 left) and their digital images. Dimensions and surface area of the FLHOF were measured using a digital caliper on dry bone and ImageJ software on digital images.
Results: The transverse length of the FLHOF (p<0.001) and surface area of the FLHOF (p=0.007) were found to be greater in the left femur bones than in the right femur bones. Type 1 localization was the most common localization type of the FLHOF. The most common morphological type was found as oval-shaped FLHOF (43.8%), followed by round (40.4%), triangular (10.5%), and piriform shape types (5.3%).
Conclusion: This study indicates that FLHOF was located mostly posteroinferior quadrant and is usually oval or round in shape. Findings obtained in the present study could provide useful information in both clinical and anthropological practice.
