To have a better outcome for the surgical intervention of leg, taking consideration of the details of the nutrient foramen is of prime importance.The nutrient foramen is a canal with proximal groove which allows the nutrient artery to go through the bone and supply the medullary cavity and inner cortex of the bone, here it is the posterior tibial artery. The study was undertaken on 116 dried tibia from G.S.L Medical College Rajahamundry. The detail study of the nutrient foramen of tibia was done accounting its number, size, direction, foramina index and position of foramen with respect to soleal line. In 69 right sided tibia 84% of the cases have the nutrient foramen in the upper third and rest 16% were present in the miidle third of the bone, all directed downwards with 95% of cases directed lateral to soleal line whereas in 47 left sided tibia 85% of the cases it is placed in the upper third keeping rest 15% in the middle third of the tibia all directed downward with 93% of cases directed lateral to soleal line leaving 7% to be upon the soleal line. The present study was found to be in accordance to the previous studies done by various researches and agreed to the the same results as of this one. The knowledge of morphology of Nutrient foramen is applied by orthopaedic surgeons to perform various surgical intervention like fracture repair, bone grafting and bone transplantation.
