Abstract
There have been many studies of asymmetry both morphological and physiological. In the study of human bones, the result appears to be more definite and all of the reports seen to indicate at least a degree of predictable asymmetry. The objective of the study was to find out the bilateral asymmetry of lower limb by measuring the percutaneous length of tibia in living. The material consisted of 440 individual in which male and female constituted the equal number between the age group of 18 to 24 years. This group comprises the admixture of students admitted from all over the country. Measurements were taken at a fixed time to avoid diurnal variations. Length of both side of tibia was recorded with vernier caliper. The observed data was subjected to statistical analysis. The result obtained indicated the left tibia found to be longer than the right tibia when both sexes considered together. When considered the both sexes separately, left tibial length was more than right in male and right tibial length was more than left tibial length in female.
