ABSTRACT
4
Objective: the objective of this study was to provide normative data of frontal
5
plane patellar alignment according to McConnell and Arno angles, verify the
6
association between theses angles and identify the presence of patellar rotation
7
in different sports modalities. Design: cross-sectional. Participants: Nine
8
participants (18 knees) were assessed in a preliminary study to verify the intra
9
and inter-examiner reliabilities of the patellar alignment measures. In the main
10
study, 230 volleyball, basketball, gymnastics and soccer athletes (460 knees)
11
were evaluated in order to obtain normative data of patellar alignment. Main
12
outcome measures: frontal plane patellar alignment (McConnell and Arno
13
angles) measured in standing position by means of photogrammetry. Results:
14
The standardized method demonstrated intra e inter-examiner reliability
15
coefficients varying from (.85 to .98). The mean McConnell and Arno angles
16
were 2.05o (±5.9) and 2.89o (±7.57), respectively. It was observed a low

association (r=.189, p
