Biomechanical study of the resurfacing hip arthroplasty: finite element analysis of the femoral component.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Finite element analysis was performed using 3-dimensional models to examine the biomechanical characteristics of the femoral component in resurfacing hip arthroplasty. Stress concentration was observed in the cortical bone adjacent to the rim of the prosthesis. Stress shielding was observed in the anterosuperior regions on the cancellous bone cross-sections near the cup rim. These biomechanical characteristics may lead to complications such as femoral neck fractures in patients with osteopenic bone and long-term loosening.

Challenges of Plate Fixation for Vancouver Type-C Fractures after a Well-Fixed Hip Arthroplasty Femoral Stem
The fixation of distal femoral fractures (Vancouver type-C fractures) following a well-fixed hip arthroplasty femoral stem has become a challenging issue for orthopedic surgeons due to the inter-prosthetic biomechanical effects such as negative, positive, and torsional strain. Surgeons have applied a range of constructs to overcome these difficulties. To minimize the risk of inter-prosthetic fr...
متن کاملDesign Optimization of Hip Resurfacing Prosthesis Using Finite Element Analysis
Hip resurfacing is an alternative to total hip arthroplasty for the young and active patient likely to outlive traditional means of hip joint replacement. To optimize design on the hip resurfacing prosthetic stress profile in the proximal femur after hip resurfacing. The acetabular cup is implanted in much the same fashion as an uncemented total hip arthroplasty, however, implantation of the fe...
متن کاملFinite element analysis of femoral neck stress in relation to pelvic width.
Hip resurfacing arthroplasty has been developed as an alternative to traditional total hip arthroplasty, in an effort to minimize the loss of native bone in young patients with symptomatic hip osteoarthritis. Femoral neck fracture following hip resurfacing is a unique complication; several risk factors are associated with this complication, including female gender. In the present study, we used...
متن کاملExperimental evaluation of new concepts in hip arthroplasty.
In this thesis we evaluated two different hip arthroplasty concepts trough in vitro studies and numerical analyses. The cortical strains in the femoral neck area were increased by 10 to 15 % after insertion of a resurfacing femoral component compared to values of the intact femur, shown in an in vitro study on human cadaver femurs. There is an increased risk of femoral neck fracture after hip r...
متن کاملBiomechanics of the Birmingham hip resurfacing arthroplasty.
The effects of the method of fixation and interface conditions on the biomechanics of the femoral component of the Birmingham hip resurfacing arthroplasty were examined using a highly detailed three-dimensional computer model of the hip. Stresses and strains in the proximal femur were compared for the natural femur and for the femur resurfaced with the Birmingham hip resurfacing. A comparison o...
