The diaphysial nutrient foramina on the femur were located at between 26.7-84.4% of the total length; while on the tibia between 11.0-67.2%; and on the fibula between 29.8-67.8% of the total length. The number of the diaphysial nutrient foramina and their distribution on the faces of each bone was also studied.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessForamen nutrientLong bonesSurgeryAnatomy & morphologyRadiology, nuclear medicine & medical imagingLower extremityArticleA1991FZ866000032-s2.0-00259124681051081321925909Anatomy & morphologyRadiology, nuclear medicine & medical imagingSurgery
