A study on the factors associated with the dimensions of the iliocapsularis muscle
Our study revealed a negative correlation between femoral version, the Mckibbin index, and various morphological parameters of the iliocapsularis muscle, including cross-sectional area, thickness, width, and circumference. Higher levels of femoral version and the Mckibbin index were associated with a potential reduction in the dimensions of the iliocapsularis muscle. These findings suggest a biomechanical relationship between hip morphology and the structural characteristics of the iliocapsularis muscle, highlighting the importance of considering these factors in the assessment of hip stability and function.
