ABSTRACT<\/strong><\/p>\n

Background: <\/strong>A high percentage of young children present with flatfeet. Flat foot in children and adolescents, as a consequence of various factors such as hypo kinesis, obesity or hereditary factors, represents a current problem.<\/p>\n

The purpose of this study was to determine relationship between flatfoot and Q Angle in male secondary school students from standing position.<\/p>\n

Subjects and Methods: <\/strong>Forty participants were included in this study divided into two groups, group A (20 normal healthy male secondary school students) while group B (20 male secondary school students are suffering from flat foot ); (age range 16-18 years, weight 71.5 \u00b1 14.4 kg, height 171.5 \u00b1 6.1 cm, were selected randomly.<\/p>\n

Results:<\/strong> Results indicated that there was statistically significant increase in participant\u2019s quadriceps-angle of the right or left knees (P< 0.05) in group B (male secondary school students are suffering from flat foot) during standing position.<\/p>\n

Conclusion: <\/strong>There were no statistically significant changes in the participant\u2019s quadriceps-angle between the right and left knees (P>0.05) either in group B (male secondary school students suffering from flat foot) or in group A (normal healthy male secondary school students). With regard to this study results, we concluded that, flat foot deformity may resulted in increasing the value of Q angle.<\/p>\n

Key words:<\/strong> Q Angle, Flat foot deformity, Secondary school students, Standing position, Radiography.<\/p>\n
