Method: The cross sectional study with purposive sampling. 100 Dry Femora of known sex and side available at Department of Anatomy, The study was conducted after receiving approval from the Ethical Committee of DMCH Darbhanga. Study duration of Two years. Conclusion: In the present study, the mean FNA angle measured Physically and Radiologically were 13.22° and 15.65° with Standard Deviation of 4.20 and 4.65 respectively. The range was from 5°-27° on physical measurement and from 6°-29° on radiological measurement.
