Experimental validation of a finite element model of a human cadaveric tibia. | LitMetric

AI Article Synopsis

Article Abstract

Finite element (FE) models of long bones are widely used to analyze implant designs. Experimental validation has been used to examine the accuracy of FE models of cadaveric femurs; however, although convergence tests have been carried out, no FE models of an intact and implanted human cadaveric tibia have been validated using a range of experimental loading conditions. The aim of the current study was to create FE models of a human cadaveric tibia, both intact and implanted with a unicompartmental knee replacement, and to validate the models against results obtained from a comprehensive set of experiments. Seventeen strain rosettes were attached to a human cadaveric tibia. Surface strains and displacements were measured under 17 loading conditions, which consisted of axial, torsional, and bending loads. The tibia was tested both before and after implantation of the knee replacement. FE models were created based on computed tomography (CT) scans of the cadaveric tibia. The models consisted of ten-node tetrahedral elements and used 600 material properties derived from the CT scans. The experiments were simulated on the models and the results compared to experimental results. Experimental strain measurements were highly repeatable and the measured stiffnesses compared well to published results. For the intact tibia under axial loading, the regression line through a plot of strains predicted by the FE model versus experimentally measured strains had a slope of 1.15, an intercept of 5.5 microstrain, and an R(2) value of 0.98. For the implanted tibia, the comparable regression line had a slope of 1.25, an intercept of 12.3 microstrain, and an R(2) value of 0.97. The root mean square errors were 6.0% and 8.8% for the intact and implanted models under axial loads, respectively. The model produced by the current study provides a tool for simulating mechanical test conditions on a human tibia. This has considerable value in reducing the costs of physical testing by pre-selecting the most appropriate test conditions or most favorable prosthetic designs for final mechanical testing. It can also be used to gain insight into the results of physical testing, by allowing the prediction of those variables difficult or impossible to measure directly.

Objective: To explore weight-bearing stability of Pilon fracture fixed by external fixator.

Methods: Six ankle bone models (right side) and 4 pairs (8 ankle cadaver specimens) were selected. Pilon fracture model was prepared by using the preset osteotomy line based on Ruedi Allgower Pilon fracture type.

Introduction: High tibial osteotomy (HTO) is indicated for managing isolated medial knee osteoarthritis in a young patient with a metaphyseal deformity of the proximal tibia. In a medial open-wedge HTO, maintaining the integrity of the hinge is crucial for consolidation and preservation of the correction. Based on a validated model and preliminary results, the objective of this work was to measure and monitor the distribution of mechanical load on a locking fixation plate and the lateral hinge of an HTO using a finite element (FE) model during different phases of consolidation evolution, simulating single leg weightbearing.

Purpose: To investigate the biomechanical consequences of osteosynthesis of lateral hinge fractures (LHFs) in medial open wedge high tibial osteotomy (MOWHTO).

Methods: Sixteen fresh-frozen human cadaveric proximal tibiae underwent MOWHTO fixed with an ipsilateral locking compression plate. The specimens were assigned to two clusters simulating LHFs according to the Takeuchi classification: (1) Type II fracture; and (2) Type III fracture.

Purpose: Medial opening wedge high tibial osteotomy is a surgical procedure intended to relieve the symptoms of osteoarthritis in the medial compartment of the knee by addressing malalignment within the structures of the knee. In previous studies, the osteotomy cut and wedge opening in a Medial opening wedge high tibial osteotomy finite element model has been represented using either one of two techniques, which we define herein as wedge opening and wedge removal approaches. The purpose of this study is to determine whether the wedge removal for a medial opening wedge high tibial osteotomy finite element modelling study predicts accurate stresses and strains in the plate, screw, and throughout the proximal tibia, in comparison to the wedge opening.

Article Synopsis
  • The study focuses on soft-tissue balancing in total knee arthroplasty (TKA), emphasizing a new method called the modified pendulum knee drop (PKD) test to quantitatively assess knee stiffness rather than relying on subjective observations.
  • Eleven cadaver specimens were used in robotic-assisted TKA procedures, with some receiving cruciate-retaining and others posterior-stabilized implants, while the PKD test was applied to analyze the stiffness changes due to varying insert thicknesses.
  • An inertial measurement unit (IMU) sensor recorded the knee's range of motion and oscillation characteristics to calculate stiffness, with results averaged over multiple trials for each insert thickness tested.
