dc.description.abstractObjectives: To evaluate the relationship between cartilage loss and differences in muscle thickness and/or leg length in poliomyelitis sequelae (PMS). Our study is the first to evaluate the relationship between cartilage loss and both muscle atrophy and leg length discrepancy in the same population. Methods: 37 patients with PMS and 38 healthy controls were included. Talar and distal femoral cartilage thicknesses and gastrocnemius medialis and quadriceps femoris muscle thicknesses were measured via ultrasound. Leg length differences and manual muscle strength were also evaluated. Results: The mean muscle thicknesses and cartilage thicknesses were thinner in the more affected legs than in the less affected legs in the patient group. All of the ultrasonographic measurements were thinner in the less affected legs of the patient group than in the right legs of the control group, except for the knee cartilage thicknesses. While there was a correlation between the cartilage thickness difference and the muscle thickness difference between the less and more affected legs in the patient group, there was no correlation between the cartilage thickness difference and leg length differences. Conclusions: Patients with PMS are predisposed to osteoarthritis. Talar and knee cartilage thicknesses may be more associated with the muscle thickness than the leg length discrepancy in PMS.en_US
