Mechanical stability of intertrochanteric fracture of femur with different internal fixation systems

背景:股骨转子间骨折的骨折类型和固定方式多样,各固定系统间的力学稳定性相差较大。使用有限元分析方法对各固定系统开展生物力学研究具有科学的临床意义。目的:通过有限元方法对比分析多种内固定应用于股骨A031-A2.1型转子间骨折的力学稳定性。方法:在已验证有效性的股骨有限元模型基础上,对模型进行必要的切割,造模成股骨A031-A2.1型转子间骨折,模拟临床手术方法置入不同的内固定系统,分别建立股骨近端防旋髓内钉、动力髋螺钉、经皮加压钢板和股骨近端锁定钢板固定模型。约束4组模型股骨远端下所有节点,在股骨头上施加700,1400和2100N的压缩载荷,通过计算分析,观察各组模型的等效应力分布和压缩刚度,比较各组模型之间的力学稳定性。结果与结论:①通过计算分析,对比各组模型的变形量计算压缩刚度后,在各级载荷作用下,各组模型上压缩刚度呈现的趋势:生理组>股骨近端防旋髓内钉组>股骨近端锁定钢板组>经皮加压钢板组>动力髋螺钉组;完整的生理组模型的压缩刚度明显高于所有的手术组模型;②观察应力指标,因存在应力遮挡效应,致使各固定组的应力峰值均高于生理组,最大峰值均集中分布于各内固定上;其中股骨近端防旋髓内钉固定组应力峰值最小,动力髋螺钉固定组应力最高,应力分布趋势呈现:生理组<股骨近端防旋髓内钉固定组<经皮加压钢板固定组<股骨近端锁定钢板固定组<动力髋螺钉固定组;③分布于骨质模型的应力,因内固定置入位置不同呈现不同的分布结果;④提示对于股骨转子间骨折,各种内固定均能起到有效的固定,结合有限元分析结果得出股骨近端防旋髓内钉组是较好的一种内固定选择,呈现变形量小、应力峰值低,应力分布均匀的特性;经皮加压钢板组和股骨近端锁定钢板组的力学效果优良,固定效果接近股骨近端防旋髓内钉固定;动力髋螺钉固定效果欠佳,同比于其他内固定,其力学稳定性较差。

BACKGROUND:Intertrochanteric fracture of femur has various fracture types and fixation methods,and the mechanical stability of each fixation system is quite different.It is of scientific clinical significance to use finite element analysis method to carry out biomechanical research on various fixation systems.OBJECTIVE:To compare and analyze the mechanical stability of various internal fixations applied to femoral intertrochanteric fracture A031-A2.1 by finite element method.METHODS:Based on the validated finite element model of femur(Intact),the model was cut and made into A031-A2.1 intertrochanteric fracture of femur.Different internal fixation systems were implanted by simulating clinical operation methods,and fixation models of proximal femoral nail antirotation,dynamic hip screw,percutaneous compression plate and proximal femoral locking plate were established respectively.All nodes under the distal femur of the four groups of models were constrained,and compression loads of 700,1400 and 2100 N were applied to the femoral head.Von Mises stress distribution and compression stiffness of each group of models were observed through calculation and analysis,and mechanical stability of each group was compared.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Through calculation and analysis,after calculating the compression stiffness by comparing the deformation of each model,the compression stiffness of each model under various loads showed the trend:physiological group>proximal femoral nail antirotation group>proximal femoral locking plate group>percutaneous compression plate group>dynamic hip screw group.The compressive stiffness of the complete physiological group model was significantly higher than that of all surgical group models.(2)The stress index was observed.Due to the stress shielding effect,the stress peak value of each fixed group was higher than that of physiological group,and the maximum peak value was concentrated on each internal fixation.Proximal femoral nail antirotation group had the smallest stress peak,while dynamic hip screw group had the highest stress.The stress distribution trend showed physiological group<proximal femoral nail antirotation group<percutaneous compression plate group<proximal femoral locking plate group<dynamic hip screw group.(3)The stress distribution in the bone model showed different results depending on the implantation location of internal fixation.(4)It is concluded that for intertrochanteric fracture of femur,all kinds of internal fixation can effectively fix it.Combined with the results of finite element analysis,proximal femoral nail antirotation group is a better internal fixation choice,showing the characteristics of small deformation,low stress peak,and uniform stress distribution.The mechanical effect of percutaneous compression plate group and proximal femoral locking plate group is excellent,and the fixation effect is close to proximal femoral nail antirotation fixation.The fixation effect of dynamic hip screw is not good,and the mechanical stability of this group is poor compared with other internal fixation.
