Finite Element Modeling and Analysis of Prosthetic Knee Joint
Degenerative arthritis is a disease that affects the line cartilage of the knee joint. It causes severe pain in the joint and may require a replacement surgery of the affected knee with artificial components. Geometric complexity and non linearity of the materials of the knee make the analytical solutions of the mechanical behaviour of the knee joint difficult. The knee is the most complex join...
متن کاملAssociation of leg-length inequality with knee osteoarthritis: a cohort study.
BACKGROUND Leg-length inequality is common in the general population and may accelerate development of knee osteoarthritis. OBJECTIVE To determine whether leg-length inequality is associated with prevalent, incident, and progressive knee osteoarthritis. DESIGN Prospective observational cohort study. SETTING Population samples from Birmingham, Alabama, and Iowa City, Iowa. PATIENTS 3026 ...
متن کاملPhemister epiphysiodesis in leg length inequality treatment--evaluative outcome analysis.
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of Phemister epiphysiodesis for leg length inequality (LLI) treatment in comparison with epiphysiodesis techniques currently in use and to determine factors that may influence outcomes. MATERIALS AND METHODS Nineteen girls and sixteen boys with a mean skeletal age of 12.2 years and a mean functional LLI of 3.8 cm at the time of sur...
متن کاملBiomechanical implications of mild leg length inequality.
The effect of mild leg length inequality (lower extremity length difference less than 3 cm) on posture and gait has been the source of much controversy. Many opinions have been expressed both for and against the need for intervention to reduce the magnitude of the discrepancy. This paper emphasizes the need for accurate and reliable assessment of leg length differences using a clinically functi...
متن کاملIs unilateral posterior crossbite associated with leg length inequality?
It has been suggested that malocclusions may influence whole body posture, including leg length, but the current scientific evidence to support this statement is poor. The aim of the present study was to investigate a possible association between leg length inequality (LLI) and unilateral posterior crossbite. A survey was carried out in young adolescents recruited from three schools. The sample...
